Tropical thorn forest species MCQ — 1 Practice Questions with Answers

Explanation

Babool, Khair and Khejri are typical drought-resistant trees of tropical thorn forests. They are adapted to low rainfall, high heat, and dry soils, which makes them common in arid and semi-arid Rajasthan. Montane forests occur in higher hill environments and have a different species mix. Tropical evergreen forests need heavy rainfall and remain dense throughout the year, unlike Rajasthan's thorn belt. Littoral and swamp forests grow near coasts, deltas, or waterlogged areas. Thus, the listed species point clearly to tropical thorn forest.
