Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Arctic and subarctic biomes are found near the north and south poles or at high altitudes in other climate zones. The biomes include tundra and boreal forests. Both have cold, dry climates and poor soil.
Detailed explanation-2: -The desert and the nonforest biome (tundra) are the two biomes that receive the least amount of rainfall during the year. The tundra receives very little precipitation about 6-10 inches annually, mostly in the form of snow, and the desert receives less than 9.9 inches per year.
Detailed explanation-3: -Explanation: The correct response is desert. The desert environment is characterized by low rainfalls (less than 25 cm per year). They are one of the most dry biomes on the planet.
