Answer:
2.Forests are made up of many layers. A typical forest consists of
five different layers. Different types of trees grow to form these
different layers. These layers enable many different types of
plants and animals to live in a small area.
The first, primary layer of the forest is called the canopy. The canopy
is made up of the tops of trees. These tree tops form a roof that blocks a
good deal lot of light from entering the forest. Many animals, such as birds,
frogs, lizards, and snakes, are found in this layer.
The next layer is the understory. This layer is made of trees that are
growing to reach the canopy. The trees are smaller about 65 feet tall
and have thin trunks. Some of the animals found in this layer are birds,
butterfl ies, frogs, and snakes, as well as squirrels, racoons, and opossums.
The third layer is the shrub layer. This layer is made up of young trees,
mature shrubs, and bushes. It grows between the smaller trees of the
understory and the forest floor. Shrubs can range from about knee-high to 10 feet, which means these shrubs can grow into the understory.
The layer that lies directly above the forest floor is the herbaceous layer.
This layer of tree seedlings, ferns, grasses, and weeds acts as a cover to the forest floor and doesn’t receive much sunlight. The plants found in this
layer bloom in early spring, before the trees begin to grow their leaves.
Some of the animals that are found in this layer are rabbits, squirrels, mice, and raccoons.
The last layer is the forest floor, which contains all of the dead matter.
The dead matter releases nutrients into the soil that will be used by the plants in the forest. It is also very dark in this layer due to lack of sunlight. The animals that are found in this layer include sow bugs, spiders, and earthworms.
3.Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process that affects all land forms. In agriculture, soil erosion refers to the wearing away of a field's topsoil by the natural physical forces of water and wind or through forces associated with farming activities such as tillage.
