plz answer these three questions correctly
Answers
- What happens if animal dies in the forest ?
Answer : When the animals die, they are decomposed by the microorganisms present in the soil. The microbes break the dead organisms into simpler organic forms and mix with soil to increase soil fertility. The plants are dependent upon the fertility of soil for their growth.
- Why even after heavy rainfall, the ground in the forest remains dry ?
Answer : Even after a heavy rainfall, the ground in the forest remains dry because the water is absorbed by the plant roots and the forest floor that has decaying vegetation and humus.
- Explain why there is a need of variety of animals and plants in a forest ?
Answer : A greater variety of plants and animals in the forests helps it to regenerate and grow. Greater variety of plants means more food and habitat for the herbivores. An increase in herbivores means more food for carnivores. Decomposers help to maintain the supply of nutrients to the soil and to the growing plants.
