Detailed explanation-1: -The forest floor is covered with detritus, dead or decaying organic matter. Fungi, moss, and ferns may live here. Deserts are the driest biome, receiving less than 25 cm of rain each year. The land is bare because the soil doesn’t have much organic matter.
Detailed explanation-2: -The biome characterized by a mean annual temperature between 0° C and 25° C and mean annual precipitation between 25 cm and 100 cm is: 1. Desert.
Detailed explanation-3: -Deserts get about 250 millimeters (10 inches) of rain per year-the least amount of rain of all of the biomes.
Detailed explanation-4: -Deserts generally occur in a band around the world between 15–30° N and S latitude (Figure 4). They cover between 26–35% of the land surface of the Earth. The climate of deserts is dominated by low precipitation, generally below 250 mm yr-1 (Figure 7).
