The correct answer is Tundra.

Explanation:

The Tundra is a set of ecosystems or biome that is characterized by presenting an icy subsoil and lack of vegetation of natural trees. It is the coldest biome on the planet, so it is not curious that it is found in areas near the poles. Consequently, the landscape is characteristic and distinctive since it is covered by a layer of snow that covers both the ground and the mountains that there may be in this climate. In the tundra, the soil surface is permanently frozen. This phenomenon is called permafrost. Freezing can continue in greater or lesser depth depending on the air temperature. Tundra soils are usually gleys, a layer of soil that is soaked in water with a high iron content, which gives it a greenish gray color.

This means that although the soil has a large amount of water, it is not always available for consumption by plants and animals, and on the other hand the inorganic contents of the soil make it less fertile. In some types of tundra, the soil surface thaws in summer. But permafrost remain frozen.
