The 'Tree of Life' in Bahrain grows in the
middle of desert and is the only green
living organism living in a vast and barren
desert. It is probably because of its long
roots that have found some underground
water source. What kind of tree is 'Tree
of Life'?
(A) Elephant tree
(B) Desert sage
(C) Mesquite
(D) Desert willow tree
Answers
Answer:
c) Mesquite
Explanation:
The Tree of Life or Shajarat-al-Hayat, as it is called in the local language, is a mesquite lonely tree that stands in the heart of Bahrain’s desert for over 400 years
Both its age and its location definitely make this tree a survivor, which is considered to be a remarkable natural wonder of the world witnessed by most who visit Bahrain.
It stands alone, on top of a 25-foot-high sandy hill, at the highest point in Bahrain, miles away from another natural tree and with no apparent source of water. With 32 feet in height, it has continued growing-despite the extreme temperatures, lack of fresh water, and nutrients.
