The bark serves as the only protection between the elements and the tree's Cambrian layer. The Cambrian layer is the tree's version of our own blood vessels; it carries the nutrients from the roots to the rest of the tree. With no bark, the layer can freeze, be ripped, or most commonly, dry out.
no they don't
Trees have bark for protection. If the bark were to be torn off then, the tree would die faster and be prone to termites.
If a layer of bark is removed with the inner cambium layer from the entire circumference of a tree, the tree will die. If the xylem or phloem of the tree is interrupted, food and water cannot travel through the tree from the roots up. The inner core of a tree, or heartwood, is actually dead tissue and does not transport anything.
Bark beetles bore through the bark to eat the tasty nutrients in the inner bark known as the phloem and cambium layers. If they eat all the way around the tree, they will girdle the tree and the tree will die. Girdling cuts the trees food tubes and it will be unable to send nutrients up and down the trunk.
The layer under the bark carries the nutrients to the tree so if this is stopped the tree will die. The layer under the bark carries the sap to the rest of the tree if this is disturbed the tree will die.
Trees die if a ring of bark is removed because it will stop water getting from the roots to the leaves.
Because they don't have water or the nutrients they need. If a tree can't get rain or sunlight, then it must mean it's sick. A tree, would reach a point where it can't continue to grow by insect infestation or pollution, since they don't intentionally die. Trees keep growing to a really old age, unless something happens.
So they could get more sunlight to the soil so their plants could grow.
Pyotr Bark died in 1937.
Trees die when they get to much water, get struck by lightning, are cut down, dont get enough sun light, and are strangled by the strangler fig tree. Note trees can die many different ways then this but these are all I can think of.
Raymond Bark-Jones died on 1995-02-02.
Trees die, roots quit holding down soil, soil erodes, fish die in muddy streams, animals that depend on fish starve, etc. etc. etc.
