No. Spruce is an evergreen. ------ WRONG!!!!!!! Coniferous trees have small, waxy and usually narrow leaves (needles or flat scales). 'Coniferous' means that it is a cone-bearing tree. The most common conifers are spruces, pines and firs. Alternative names used for coniferous trees are evergreens, softwoods and (appropriately enough) conifers. However, the name evergreen is not really a good synonym. Laurel, acacia and eucalyptus are also evergreens, and although not deciduous, they are not cone-bearing trees (they also definitely have leaves rather than needles). Therefore spruce is not deciduous, it is coniferous

Also, deciduous trees are considered hardwoods as opposed to the conifer's which are considered softwoods.A deciduous tree is a tree that becomes dormant in Winter, losing its leaves. An evergreen or coniferous retains its leaves in Winter Examples of both: Pine, Spruce, ceder are coniferous - Maple, Oak, Hickory are deciduous
A conifer is typically an evergreen, it does not drop its' 'leaves' (needles or scales) as do deciduous trees. Blue Spruce, White Pine, and Douglas fir are examples of conifer trees. Think Christmas trees - they are conifers. A conifer is a cone bearing tree. Some conifers are deciduous for example the Larch.
Most conifer timber is classed as softwood and deciduous wood as hardwood.
Coniferous trees (spruce, pine, etc.) are called softwood, even though some have harder wood than deciduous trees (maple, oak, birch, etc.).

Nope, it's an evergreen. :)
A spruce tree is a coniferous evergreen (pine needles and cones) and most maple trees are deciduous (leaves fall off).
Aspen and poplar forests or rather, deciduous forests. There's always a transition zone of spruce and deciduous (which include aspen and poplar trees) before going right to straight deciduous/hard-wood forests.
Diospyros kaki, the Chinese persimmon is deciduous. Diospyros virgineana the North American persimmon is deciduous. None of the persimmons are conifers.
To break this down to its most generic terms the answer is evergreen and deciduous. Meaning evergreen stays green all year long and a deciduous tree looses its leaves

Pine and spruce are both evergreens, so the answer would be "either one", or "neither". An evergreen forest isn't classified as having one type of tree. Some of them even contain deciduous trees.
Coniferous means that trees or shrubs have cones or pointed needles. Deciduous means that trees shed their leaves annually. While some examples of coniferous trees are firs and spruce, deciduous trees are oak and maple.
