B.The solar system features the planet earth.
C.A humid equatorial forest.
D.A habitat suitable for plant-growing

Answer 1

Hint: It is a glass garden or warian case or even called a vivarium. It has an enclosure with glass sides and sometimes a glass top, arranged for keeping plants or terrestrial or semi terrestrial animals indoors. The purpose may be decoration, scientific observation, or plants and animal propagation.

Complete answer:
Plants commonly grown in terraria at cool temperatures include mosses, lichens, bloodroot, wood ferns, violets, trailing arbutus, and anemones. In warmer temperatures various begonias, croton, peperomia, selaginella etc.
They are small, enclosed environments for certain plants. Think of it as a mini-greenhouse. The containers for terrarium gardens are typically transparent, such as glass or plastic. There are two types of terrariums: it is sealed and open. Sealed terrarium has a removable lit while the open terrarium does not. The plants and the soil in the terrarium release water vapours which are essentially recycling water. The vapours are then collected on to the glass walls and trickled down to the soil. Terrarium are self-nourishing, which is why they require little maintenance, if sealed.
So, the correct answer is option D i.e. terrarium to simulate for a habitat suitable for plant growing.

Note:
They help grow plants that would be difficult to grow in dry air. They provide a confined space for a garden-a mini garden. You can use artificial light, such as LED or fluorescent very efficiently. Terrariums don’t need to be watered often.
