Explanation

The natural vegetation of a region depends largely on the amount of annual rainfall it receives. The correct matches are:

  • Tropical Deciduous Forests: Found in areas receiving moderate rainfall between 100 cm and 200 cm.
  • Tropical Dry Forests: Prevalent in regions experiencing lower rainfall, typically between 50 cm and 100 cm.
  • Arid Forests: Found in desert or semi-desert areas where the annual rainfall is less than 50 cm.

Therefore, the correct matching sequence is A-2, B-1, C-5, D-3.
