What else can I help you with?
Why isn't the oxygen in the earths atmosphere used up by the breathing of humans and other animals?
It is constantly being replenished by plants, from the giant 100mtr trees to the tiny algae. These plants convert, by photo-synthesis, the carbon-dioxide breathed out by animals back into oxygen in the atmosphere.
Are pine trees more or less likely struck by lightning?
A journal paper was published under the title of "Lightning protection for trees and related property" (R. Cripe, Journal of Arboriculture; Sept.24 2007) that notes Pine Trees are third most likely to be struck by lightning; after oak and elm. Pine trees are noted as being on average taller than other trees, having a direct water-table root system and their needles have a lower resistance (higher conductivity).
Rubber as no more a commercial product in Amazon basin?
As people living in amazon basin produce crops through a method known as 'slash and burn method' where the trees are cut and burnt to make small plots to cultivate crops. Because of the excessive destruction of trees carbon-dioxide increase in the atmosphere. the rubber plant that grows absorbs whatever is available in the atmosphere. it started to absorb a lot of carbon-dioxide . all the plants then did not give proper latex ( liquid rubber ).
How do cyclones effect the atmosphere lithosphere hydrosphere and biosphere?
lithosphere: coastal erosion, buildings destroyed hydrosphere: causing big waves in the ocean, unsettled waters (lakes, rivers etc.) atmosphere: disasterous winds, basically anything to do with wind actually... biosphere: death of animals/people, death of trees, crops etc.
What is the meaning of timberline?
The "timberline" is the point on a mountain slope above which timber trees will not grow. Above the line, there is either not enough soil, not enough air, or insufficient warmth for the growth of trees. This can be seen on the treeless upper slopes of Mount Everest and other Himalayan mountains, and on the higher mountains in the Alps.
What gets higher and trees get shorter as the atmosphere get thinner?
altitude
What gets higher as the trees get shorter and the atmosphere gets thinner?
altitude
What is this as this gets higher trees get shorter and the atmosphere gets thinner?
altitude
What gets higher and trees get shorter and the atmosphere gets thinner?
elevation
What gets higher as trees get shorter and atmosphere gets thinner?
altitude
As this gets higher trees get shorter in the atmosphere gets thinner?
As elevation increases, atmospheric pressure decreases, leading to thinner air. This reduced air pressure can limit the growth of trees, as they require certain conditions for photosynthesis and nutrient uptake. Consequently, as you ascend in altitude, trees generally become shorter and less abundant, eventually giving way to shrubs and alpine vegetation. This phenomenon is often observed in mountainous regions where tree lines are established.
What happens to air as you go up in the atmosphere?
The air gets thinner. That's why if you are climbing a mountain the trees are shorter as you get to the top because they don't have as much air as the lower atmosphere.
As this gets higher trees get shorter and the atmosphere get thinner What is it called?
it would be eater elevation or altitude eater one would be correct
Which types of trees are the most effective at absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere?
Broadleaf trees, such as oak, maple, and beech, are generally more effective at absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere compared to coniferous trees. This is because broadleaf trees have larger, thinner leaves that allow for more efficient gas exchange.
Are spruce trees shorter than poplar trees?
are they
What is the oil from pine trees used as paint thinner?
Turpentine.
Where do trees get there nutrients from?
The Atmosphere!
