Desert temperatures range from about 70 to over 136 degrees Fahrenheit.

• A. 60–100 F
• B. 70–136 F
• C. 50–90 F
• D. 90–140 F

Answer: (B)

Desert climates fluctuate a lot from day to night, with very hot daytime heat and warmer mornings. The range described—about 70 F as a lower bound and over 136 F as a high end—matches that pattern: mornings around the low to mid-70s and extremely hot days that can exceed the 136 F mark. The other options don’t fit this reality: one misses the high extreme, another starts too low, and another ends too high or too low relative to the given range. The best choice accurately reflects the broad, extreme temperatures deserts can experience.
