A rain forest is very dense, with trees growing very close to each other. If a tree dies, it is held in place by all the other trees next to it (unless it happens to be at the very edge of the forest).
deciduous forests
Acorns can be found on oak trees in forests, parks, or wooded areas. Look under oak trees, particularly in the fall when they are most likely to have fallen from the branches. Be sure to check the ground around oak trees.
why do the blooms fall from the trees before they ripen & fall to the ground? please forward answer to www.fslawson@win.org thank you
No, there leaves fall of and it looks a lot like there dead but there really no:)
little particles go in the ground as they fall of the dead outer core of the mango little particles go in the ground as they fall of the dead outer core of the mango
forests since trees fall down if they're struck by lightning
Those little spiky balls that fall from trees and can be found scattered on the ground are called "sweet gum balls" or "gumballs."
Dead leaves that fall to the ground undergo the process of decomposition. They are broken down by decomposers such as fungi, bacteria, and other organisms, which recycle the nutrients back into the soil. This helps enrich the soil and provides nutrients for new plant growth.
Not unless you fall into tall, soft trees to slow you before you hit the ground.
Actually the leaves on some trees drop everywhere in fall (not just in the eastern US) and the leaves on other trees never drop.The trees that drop their leaves in fall are called deciduous and the trees that never drop their leaves are called evergreen.The reason for the phenomenon you are describing is that in the eastern US forests have many more deciduous trees than evergreen trees, while in the western US forests have many more evergreen trees than deciduous trees. But forests on both sides of the US always have some of both types.Deciduous trees drop their leaves in fall mostly as a way to minimize water loss in winter to the cold dry air. Evergreens have an entirely different means of coping with cold dry air in winter.
The dominant plants found in temperate forests are typically deciduous trees such as oak, maple, beech, and birch. These trees shed their leaves in the fall and regrow them in the spring. Other common plants in temperate forests include ferns, mosses, and shrubs.
Deciduous means falling off at maturity or tending to fall off (deriving from the Latin word decidere, to fall off)[1] and is typically used in reference to trees or shrubs that lose their leaves seasonally and to the shedding of other plant structures such as petals after flowering or fruit when ripe.Typically just reffered to as DECIDUOUS FOREST.
