Differentiate the following: Temperate Evergreen Forests and Temperate Deciduous Forests
Answers
Answer:
The main difference between evergreen and deciduous forest is that the trees in an evergreen forest do not shed their leaves during a particular season whereas the trees in a deciduous forest shed their leaves during the dry season. Furthermore, a typical evergreen forest receives more than 200 mm of annual rainfall while a deciduous forest receives between 200-70 mm of annual rainfall.
Evergreen and deciduous forest are two types of forests classified based on the shedding of leaves by the trees.
Explanation:
What is an Evergreen Forest
An evergreen forest is a type of forest whose trees maintain their leaves throughout the year. This means, regardless of the season, these trees will be found with leaves or needles. The trees of an evergreen forest can be conifers, hemlock, eucalyptus, cycads, etc.
What is a Deciduous Forest
Deciduous forest is a type of forest with trees that grow fresh leaves in every spring since they lose their leaves in every fall. During the fall, the leaves get spectacular bright colors such as red, orange, and yellow before their shedding. The leaves of the deciduous trees are generally broad. Both the structure and pattern of arrangements in leaves increase the effectiveness of photosynthesis in deciduous trees. Also, shedding leaves during winter helps the trees to reserve water. Many woody plants such as oaks and maple are often found in deciduous forests.
