Hint:
There are different types of biomes existing in our nature. Biome is classified as the location where a community lives. Temperature, soil type and light are some of the factors which define a biome.

Complete step by step answer:
In the course of succession, certain species' colonies expand and their populations increase, while those of other species see a reduction or even extinction.
A group of creatures that can breed with one another in nature and create healthy offspring is referred to as a biological species community, also known as a biological community.In biology, a community is a collection of coexisting species with a common habitat. An example of a biological community is a forest of trees and underbrush plants that is inhabited by a variety of animals and is rooted in bacterial and fungal-rich soil.
 A place is categorized as a biome based on the species that call it home. Scientists can define a biome by defining the temperature range, soil type, amount of light, and water that are peculiar to a location and create niches for particular species. On the other hand, scientists disagree on the number of biomes.
So, option (A) is correct.
Note: Don't confuse biome with habitat. A biome defines major characters of the world by plants and weather conditions whereas a habitat refers to the local environment of a specific species but biome refers to the global environment.
