Immanuel Pearson · Answer 2

The word "dessert" is used incorrectly.

Dessert means A sweet confection served as the last course of a meal. The right word should be "desert" which means A barren area of land or desolate terrain with little water or vegetation. so the sentence should be " Antarctica is the world's largest desert, on average it receives only 6.5 inches of precipitation every year.
