Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Deciduous forests are biomes that are classified by the seasonal weather patterns they experience – in that they go through all four seasons, with trees losing their leaves each fall and winter. The deciduous forest biomes lie between regions and the tropics.

Detailed explanation-2: -Temperate deciduous forests are most notable because they go through four seasons: Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall. Leaves change color (or senesce) in autumn, fall off in the winter, and grow back in the spring; this adaptation allows plants to survive cold winters.

Detailed explanation-3: -The corresponding biome is the Deciduous Forest, or Temperate Forest biome. Such forests occur between approximately 25 ° and 50 ° latitude in both hemispheres. One thing that is interesting about this biome and its climate is that it has four distinct seasons; spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

Detailed explanation-4: -A deciduous forest is a biome dominated by deciduous trees which lose their leaves seasonally. The Earth has temperate deciduous forests, and tropical and subtropical deciduous forests, also known as dry forests. Another name for these forests is broad-leaf forests because of the wide, flat leaves on the trees.

Detailed explanation-5: -Deciduous temperate forests are located in the cool, rainy regions of the northern hemisphere (North America-including Canada, the United States, and central Mexico-Europe, and western regions of Asia-including Japan, China, North Korea, South Korea, and parts of Russia).
