Coniferous forests in India are found in
A. Madhya Pradesh
B. Himalayan regions
C. Satpura Hills
D. Rajasthan

Hint:Coniferous forests mainly consist of cone-bearing needle-leaved or scale-leaved evergreen trees. Areas that have long winters and moderate to high annual precipitation are home to such forests.

Complete answer:
We have already stated that coniferous trees are found in areas having long winters and moderate to high annual precipitation.
Since the tropic of Cancer passes through the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, very cold temperature suitable for housing coniferous trees is not possible. The state has an average daily temperature of 33 degrees°. Hence, this option is wrong.
Satpura Hills is located in the same latitude of Madhya Pradesh. So, this is also entirely situated in the tropical region. In this regard, we can’t take this option as a valid answer for this question.
The Himalayan regions have recorded extremely low temperatures which ranges from -8° to -29°C. These regions have the highest mountains in the world and are suitable for supporting coniferous trees. So, this answer is correct.

Additional information:One can see coniferous trees in mountainous regions. They have low recorded temperatures throughout the year. The average temperature in winter is about 54 degrees Celsius beyond freezing point, while the temperatures in summer rose maximum to 21 degree Celsius. Pines, spruces, firs, and larches are the dominant trees in coniferous forests.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘B’.

Note:It has been observed that areas near the tropics are warmer. But these areas are hotter than the equatorial regions. When the air descends into the tropics, it becomes even more hotter. This is because as the dry air descends from high altitudes, its compression leads to an increase in its temperature. Generally, when moist air descends 1 kilometre, it becomes hotter by 6 degrees Celsius, but it increases by 10 degrees Celsius when the air is dry.Therefore, air temperature in the tropics (42 degrees Celsius) is greater than that of the Equator (30degrees Celsius). Therefore, tropical regions are hotter than the Equator.
