Answer 1

Answer:

Characteristics of Temperate Deciduous  Forest  are:

• Deciduous forests have a long, warm growing season as one of four distinct seasons.

• Tree leaves are arranged in strata: canopy, understory, shrub, and ground. A great deal of light is therefore filtered out before it reaches the ground.

• With the dropping of their leaves during one season, trees stop photosynthesis and enter a dormant period.

• Three main types of trees are characteristic of these forests: northern hardwood, central hardwood, and southeast pine and oak.
