Question

What are the advantages of sloping branches and leathery leaves of coniferous forests?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Coniferous forest generally flourishes in Taiga type of climate. This climate has severe winters and a brief period of summer lasting only for 3 to 4 months. Heavy snowfall occurs during winter and temperature falls to about -30 to -40 degrees.

The forests in the Taiga region are evergreen coniferous forests. The word ‘conifer’ is a Latin word meaning ‘cone-bearing’ The forests in Taiga region are named so because of the evergreen trees with needle shape or scale-like leaves.

Coniferous trees very tough and are one of the largest living species of trees in the world. Almost all of the conifers trees have seeds on the surface of their scales, this gives them cone-like appearance. The cones look like seed cones. The male and female reproductive structures are present in the cone.
