Options:
A .  Deciduous forest
B .  Mangrove forest
C .  Scrub jungle forest
D .  Evergreen forest
Answer: Option A
Answer: (a)
Deciduous means “falling off at maturity” or “tending to fall off”, and is typically used in reference to trees or shrubs that lose their leaves seasonally, and to the shedding of other plant structures such as petals after flowering or fruit when ripe.
In a more general sense, deciduous means the dropping of a part that is no longer needed or falling away after its purpose is finished.
