Wha kind of trees lose their leaves in the autumn?
Most deciduous trees lose their leaves in Autumn . . . trees like maples, linden trees, elm trees; however, oddly enough, many oak trees do not lose their leaves in Autumn. The leaves turn colors, and then die and turn brown. The dead leaves take their time to drop off. In my area, some oaks still have their dead leaves as late as early Spring.
Why do only some trees have leaves that change color?
Leaves change color because the trunk of the tree stops sending nutrients and water and other chemicals to the leaves. In the winder, the tree keeps all the nutrients inside and doesn't have the energy to keep feeding the leaves, so they change color and die and fall off. Trees with leaves that do not change color just means that they don't have this process and are most likely in a warmer climate or survive much better in cold

Why do trees shed their leaves in autumn?
In general all trees sprout new growth come early spring. And some trees gain new leaves after being bare over the winter. Evergreen trees like firs get new growth of needles. And even other trees will burst into bloom, like the Japanese Cherry Trees that are so famous for their pink flowers. Not much happens during the summer. Bot some of the trees that bloomed during the spring start to develop fruit where their flowers once were. The fruit ripens during the summer months and typically are ready for picking by the last month of summer early month of autumn. During late autumn the leaves of the deciduous trees change from green to multiple colors (red, yellow) and eventually fall off leaving the trees bare again for the winter. The evergreens stay green and do not lose their needles, but they do go dormant to conserve energy. During the winter months all trees lie dormant for the most part. The notable exceptions are tropical trees like palm trees, fig trees, and fern trees that stay green and active in the tropical parts of the world.
