Why do trees in the rainforest's have straight trunks and few lower branches?
The ample availability of heat and moisture and the great distance from the sunlit canopy describe why rainforest trees have smooth, thin bark. Rough, thick bark manages heat loss and moisture evaporation and nurtures growth of lichens, mosses and orchids. Smooth, thin bark prevents growth that competes with the higher-growing branches and upturned foliage on rainforest trees that require greater vertical distances to reach life-sustaining sun.

Why do people from the rainforest cut down the trees that give us oxygen?
People cut down trees, in the rainforests and elsewhere, because they find advantage in doing so. Either they have a direct use for the trees or they can sell them for money.

In fact, the vast majority of free oxygen in the air comes from plants living in the oceans of the world.

How do some trees survive bushfires?
A number of trees have loose bark and few or no low hanging branches. When a fire passes through it scorches the bark. It may burn the few low hanging branches, but there are not enough of them to set the rest of the tree on fire. Since the tree is always producing new bark, it does not matter that the outside layer was burned. Since its crown with the major branches are above the flames, they did not catch fire. If you visit tree farms in the South Eastern part of the United States, you will notice the trees do not have low hanging branches. If a fire comes through, it will remain close to the ground. It will not touch the tree tops. It will not burn down the trees.
