Answer:
d) cold desert is the answer for me
The magma that comes out through narrow cracks or fissures in the crust spread over large area and solidifies. These layers of lava sheets form lava or volcanic plateaus. The Antrim plateau in Northern Ireland, The Deccan Plateau in India and the Columbia Plateau in the United States are examples of lava plateaus.
A plateau which is enclosed or surrounded by mountain ranges is known as an intermontane plateau. The Plateau of Tibet and the Plateau of Mongolia are the two intermontane plateaus in Asia. The Plateau of Tibet is surrounded by the Kunlun Mountains in the north and the Himalayas in the south.
Cold deserts have hot summers but extremely cold winters. These deserts are found in high, flat areas, called plateaus, or mountainous areas in temperate regions of the world. Temperate regions lie between the polar regions and the tropics. Like other types of desert, cold deserts get very little rain or snow.
