Detailed Solution

The above statement is correct. Rainfall is an important factor in deciding the prominent vegetation of a region. High rainfall ensures an adequate water supply to facilitate vegetation growth. The amount of rainfall decides the type of vegetation in an area. The areas with heavy rainfall, like the Western Ghats, have tropical evergreen forests. Tropical Deciduous forests are found in regions of moderate to heavy rainfall like Uttar Pradesh and parts of Maharashtra. Alpine or coniferous vegetation is in hilly areas like the Himalayas. Thorns and shrubs are prominent in the desert region, where rainfall is scarce. Mangroves are another type of vegetation found in the marshy areas of the Ganga-Brahmaputra delta.
