C Correct answer
Explanation

Hot deserts experience the maximum daily and annual range of temperature because they have minimal cloud cover and sparse vegetation. During the day, intense solar radiation causes rapid heating, while at night, the lack of cloud cover and low humidity allow rapid heat loss through terrestrial radiation. This creates extreme diurnal and annual temperature variations.
