E Correct answer
Explanation

Ladakh is a desert in the mountains in the eastern part of Jammu and Kashmir. Very little agriculture is possible here because this region does not receive any rain and is covered in snow for a large part of the year. There are very few trees that can grow in the region. For drinking water, people depend on the melting snow during the summer months.
