-some of the dominant plants are CAM plants

Accepted Answer

The dominant plants in deserts are often CAM plants, which allow them to conserve water in hot and dry conditions.

Answer: G
 Savannas also often have CAM plants as dominant vegetation, as they too can withstand drought and unpredictable rainfall.

Note: While other biomes may also have CAM plants, the prompt specifically states "some" of the dominant plants, indicating that CAM plants are particularly prominent in these two biomes.
