The correct answer is the Warm Temperate zone.

Key Points

  • Mediterranean sea shrubs are found in warm temperate regions lying between 30° and 40° north and south latitudes.
  • Mediterranean vegetation is scrubby, dense vegetation composed of broad-leaved evergreen shrubs, bushes, and small trees usually less than 2.5 m (about 8 feet). 
  • These regions have a climate that can be characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters.

Additional Information

  • Different climate zones and their basic information: 
    • Equitorial Region: A tropical rainforest climate or equatorial climate is a tropical climate usually found within 10 to 15 degrees latitude around the equator, and has at least 60 millimeters (2.4 in) of rainfall every month of the year. Normally tropical rainforests consist of evergreen trees that yield tropical hardwood, e.g. mahogany, ebony, greenheart, cabinet woods, and dyewoods.
    • Temperate zone: These regions lie between 30° and 60° latitude and the solar radiation arrives in this region at a smaller angle. The average temperatures here are much cooler than in the subtropics. The climate is characterized by less frequent extremes, more regular distribution of the precipitation over the year, and a longer vegetation period - therefore the name temperate.
    • Cold zone: These regions lie between 60° to 90° latitude. Also known as the polar areas, these areas receive less heat through solar radiation, since the Sun has a very flat angle toward the ground. Vegetation is only possible during a few months per year and even then is often sparse. The conditions for life in these regions are very hard.
