Temperate conditions but with seasonal dry periods, grasses are dominant vegetation.

Answer 1

Temperate rain forests have Cold winters and warm summers, and broad-leafed deciduous trees like oaks are dominant (Option E)

Step-by-step explanation:

Temperate forest biome characterizes for having deciduous trees such as oaks, maple, or olms, among other phanerophyte species. These plant species lose their leaves every year during the cold and dry autumns and winters, being these seasons the most limiting period over the year. Foliage resprout again during the warmer wet season when it rains more often, during spring and summer.

These forests are located between 30º and 60º latitude in both hemispheres. Precipitations might be over 1000mm.

Soils are very fertile and deep, due to the leaves´ loss that provides nutrients to the soil and protect it from erosion.
