Are fall and autumn the same season?
the temperature and in the spring leaves are green and in the fall leaves turn brown and fall off of the trees. Basically, autumn is the beginning of this season. It is the weeks during which the change happens after summer, when you can feel that crispness creep into the air and you know that the summer is over. It is the time of year where, in many places, the colors of the leaves are bright and eye-catching. And autumn is associated with excitement about this change. In contrast, fall is when the leaves have actually fallen off of the trees and are down on the ground. The air is cold all of the time so that the crispness isn't so much refreshing as just standard. And instead of excitement about the season, most people are anticipating the winter holidays.
Why are Leaves on yellow willow turning yellow?
The 'green' of leaves is the chlorophyll in the leaf that converts carbon dioxide and oxygen into energy for the tree to live. During Autumn, when deciduous trees shed their leaves the tree is effectively going into a form of hibernation. To do this all the energy made over the year is stored in the tree, and all energy to feed the leaves is withdrawn by the tree. This means that the leaves start to die, and the leaves go yellow (the natural colour of the leaf) as the amount of chlorophyll in the leaves falls. Eventually when each leaf has died, the stem of the leaf will seal up and start splitting away from the tree, meaning the leaf will fall with the next gust of wind.
Who made fall?
English men and woman came up with the word because of the direction on which the leaves drop
Is leaves turning color in the fall a chemical or physical change?
I don't know the scientific equation, but I do know that the tree withdraws it's sugars from the leaves, during the autumn and winter to make sure that there is enough for the main tree. The withdrawal of the sugars is a physical action, but it is a chemical one as well. The chlorophyll that was made thru the sunlight on the leaves for photosynthesis. This stops when the weather turns colder and there is less sunlight causing the leaves lessen the amount to chlorophyll they can make, signaling to the tree to cut off the sugar supply to the leaves. I'd say it's both. Also, You have witnessed a spectacular chemical change if you have seen the leaves on a tree change from green to bright yellow, red, or orange. But, it is not a change from a green pigment to a red pigment, as you might think. Pigments are chemicals that give leaves their color. In autumn, however, changes in temperature and rainfall amounts cause trees to stop producing chlorophyll. The chlorophyll already in the leaves undergoes a chemical change into colorless chemicals.Where do the bright fall colors come from? The pigments that produce fall colors have been present in the leaves all along. However, in the summer, chlorophyll is present in large enough amounts to mask these pigments. In the fall, when chlorophyll production stops, the bright pigments become visible.
