You have come across an old dataset in your research lab. the researcher recorded temperature, precipitation, and plant species over a time span of five years, but apparently forgot to record the location! upon further examination, you find that the average temperature in the mystery location is 10°c, the average precipitation is 25cm, and plant matter is sparse, made up mostly of short, scrubby species. from what biome was the dataset most likely recorded?

Cold desert.

Explanation:

Cold desert have extremely hot and dry summers but the winters are brutally cold. The temperature reaches up to below the freezing point.

The average recorded temperature of the area is 10°C and the precipitation is 25 cm that matches with the environmental condition of the cold desert. The plant matter of cold desert and recorded area is same with short and scrubby species.

Thus, the answer is cold desert.
