Question

You have been given a piece of evidence indicating that plant and animal life is scarce in this environment. Identify this environment and the correct explanation.

This is a tundra because it is too hot for plant and animal life to live in.

This is a swamp because it is too cold for plant and animal life to live in.

This is a desert because there is little precipitation for plant and animal life to thrive.

This is a rainforest because there is too much precipitation for plant and animal life to thrive.

Answer 1

This is a desert because there is little precipitation for plant and animal life to thrive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tundra is harsh environment because of its cold temperature, so it's definitely not too hot. Swamp temperature should be not too cold or hot. The rainforest should have abundant plant and animal life.

Desert has very low precipitation and low moisture so that not much water can be found around. Water is vital for any plant or animal. Water also helps regulate temperature and make the fluctuation in the environment extreme. The temperature around the desert can be really high at daylight and low at night.
