Explanation:

Given below points are essential to understand the difference between Evergreen and Deciduous Forests:

Evergreen forests, also known as Rain forests. These forests grow in the area which receives more than 200 cm of rainfall annually and is so dense that sunlight does not reach to the ground. Deciduous forests are also known as Monsoon forests. These forests grow in the area which receives annual rainfall between 200 – 70 cm and is not so dense as evergreen forests.

Evergreen forests are found in areas where there is abundant sunshine and rainfall while deciduous forests are located in the area with cold climate and moderate rainfall.

Trees of the evergreen forests do not shed their leaves at any particular time of the year, though trees of the deciduous forests shed their leaves in some specific season (for six months), to save the loss of water and moisture through transpiration.

The soil of the evergreen forests has fewer nutrients as compared to the deciduous forests, whose soils are rich in nutrients.

Evergreen forests are sensitive to temperature, and so these can survive in warm weather, while deciduous forests are susceptible to rainfall, and shed off their leaves in cold as well as dry conditions.

Evergreen forests grow in the margins of South Brazil, South China, etc., whereas Deciduous forests grow in Central America, Brazil, Asia, etc.

The evergreen forest consists of the species like Sandalwood, Rubber, Bamboos, Rosewood, Mahogany, Ebony, etc.; Deciduous forest has a collection of species like Cedar, Teak, Oak, Sandal, Ash, Fir, etc.
