The correct answer is D) Desert Region.
The trees listed – Khair, Neem, Khejri, and Palas – are characteristic species of dry deciduous forests and thorn forests, which are prevalent in arid and semi-arid regions of India. Khejri (Prosopis cineraria) is particularly well-known for its adaptation to desert conditions and is often found in the Thar Desert.
