Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
The Taiga's soil is not very nutritious to grow an abundance of plants. The taiga biome is characterized by cold temperatures and a short growing season, which limits the decomposition of organic matter and the release of nutrients in the soil. The soil in the taiga is typically acidic and nutrient-poor, making it challenging for plants to thrive and grow abundantly.Rate this question:
