Question

select the correct answer.
fire can have a tremendous impact on ecosystems. while usually it has negative impacts, there is one biome in which fire helps restore nutrients. which biome actually benefits from the fluctuations in temperatures and precipitation that causes fires?
a. desert
b. deciduous forest
c. tundra
d. shrubland

Explanation:

Fire in shrublands often clears out dense, overgrown vegetation, releases nutrients back into the soil, and creates conditions that favor the germination of fire-adapted plant species, making it beneficial for ecosystem restoration. Deserts have too little fuel for frequent impactful fires, deciduous forests are harmed by fire as it disrupts their mature tree communities, and tundra has very slow recovery from fire due to its cold climate and thin soil.

Answer:

D. shrubland
