Question

There are no trees in the Tundra Region.

Short Note

Solution

The Tundra region is covered with perpetual snow and the temperature away below freezing point does not allow the: growth of trees. Only moss and small flowery plants and lichen etc grow in the short summer season only with 10°C temperature at the most. In spite of the six months’ sunlight, the snow cover reflects the insolation.
