In ________ forest, trees shed their leaves in a particular season.

A Evergreen
B Mangrove
C Deciduous
D Thorny

Correct Answer: Deciduous

Temperate deciduous forests (or) temperate broad leaf forests are dominated by trees that loose their leaves each year in a particular season. Deciduous means "falling off at maturity" (or) "tending to fall off'. Deciduous forests are located primarily in the regions of the world like eastern half of the United States, Canada, Europe, parts of Russia, China and Japan. Tropical moist deciduous forests are also found in India where the rain fall is around 100-200 cm.
