Kapok Fibre
its not us that need the kapok tree its the animals in the tropical rain forest they all depend on that tree espesally the fruit bat
Yes the Kapok tree does have flowers! The flowers are pollinated and the seeds are spread by fruit bats.
Kapok is a natural fiber obtained from the seed pods of the kapok tree. It is a fluffy, cotton-like material that is often used as stuffing for pillows, mattresses, and life jackets due to its buoyancy and water-resistant qualities. Kapok is sustainable and biodegradable, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic materials.
Kapok
what is the silky fibre obtained from the hairs covering the seeds of a tropical tree
kapok is from the kapok tree. it has a seed pod similar to the cotton tree pod and the kapok ( as with the cotton ) is the fibre from inside the pod it is generally used for matress, toy and pillow stuffing
Many different species live on or around the kapok tree. Moss could potentially grow on the bark of a kapok tree, especially in humid environments. Snakes may also inhabit kapok trees to seek shelter or prey on animals that visit the tree.
Yes, some animals can eat kapok fruit, which comes from the kapok tree (Ceiba pentandra). The fruit contains seeds surrounded by a fibrous material that is less palatable, but certain animals, such as birds and some mammals, may consume the seeds. However, the fruit is not a primary food source for most animals, and its nutritional value can vary.
The Great Kapok Tree was created in 1990.
A mature kapok tree may be 60 - 70 m.
when the kapok pops, its seeds go all over the place and then it will grow on a new kapok tree (i think =.=)
some fruit plants of the rainforest (tropical) are the kapok tree, strangler figs, acai plants, passion fruit and cocoa trees.
