Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mediterranean climates have dry summers and mild, wet winters. This type of climate favors the growth of shrubs and small trees with adaptations to withstand the dry season, such as drought-resistant leaves, thick bark, and deep roots. This ecosystem is known as temperate shrubland, also called chaparral or maquis, and it is dominated by vegetation such as sagebrush, oak, manzanita, and chamise. The other options, temperate deciduous forest, desert, and tropical savanna, do not match the precipitation or temperature patterns of Mediterranean climates.
