Which continent has no desert?
A) Africa
B) Antarctica
C) Europe
D) Australia
Correct Answer: C) Europe
Explanation: Europe is the only continent that does not have any deserts. While many other continents feature large arid regions with very little precipitation, Europe has a more temperate climate overall, with landscapes ranging from lush forests to rolling plains and mountain ranges. The closest Europe comes to desert-like conditions are some small arid areas, but none qualify as true deserts.
- A) Africa: Africa has the Sahara, the largest hot desert in the world.
- B) Antarctica: While it is covered in ice, Antarctica is classified as a cold desert because it receives very little precipitation.
- D) Australia: Australia is home to multiple deserts, including the Great Victoria Desert.
Thus, Europe stands out as the only continent without any true desert environments.
