What is tundra described as in the text?

  1. A type of forest

  2. A desert

  3. A mountain range

  4. A vast rocky Arctic plain

The correct answer is: A vast rocky Arctic plain

The other options, A, B, and C, are incorrect because the tundra is not described as a forest, desert, or mountain range in the text. Instead, it is described as a vast rocky Arctic plain. This is due to the cold and harsh conditions in the tundra, which make it difficult for trees to grow and create a desert-like environment. Additionally, the topography of the tundra is characterized by low-lying rocky areas rather than mountain ranges. Therefore, the correct choice is D.
