No not really - most tropical rainforest trees are evergreens and keep their color until the leaves fall off. Certain palm trees do not change color until they die, or fall off too.
Eventually yes, but Conifers have smaller leaves so they change slower.
deciduous trees go into dormancy over winter relying on stored energy to survive, without the leaves they cant photosynthesize. the exception to this would be in young trees that have green stems that photosynthesize.
These are the pigments other than chlorophyll, such as carotinoids, that are not visible until the tree " recycles " the chlorophyll pigment in preparation for a energy saving winter period. They were there all the time processing different wavelengths of light than chlorophyll does.
Evergreens do not lose their leaves in the winter. Deciduous trees are the name given to those trees that lose their leaves in the winter. There is also a such thing as evergreen deciduous trees which have characteristics of evergreens besides the fact that they DO lose their leaves in the winter.
no they are more of a light green colour but it depends on what season it is. And also what tree it is.Answer:The leaves of trees are often green however the leaves can also be yellow, red or red/ purple. It all depends on the type of chlorophyll in the leaves, Some conifers like Blue Spruce have a bluish tinge to their needles and trees like maples change colour from green to red and yellow with frost.
All trees lose their leaves or needles. Deciduous trees shed all their leaves at once, whereas Evergreens shed some of their leaves throughout the year, but always retain some leaves at any time, so the tree is always green, evergreen. There are many evergreen types of tree.Deciduousness is an adaptation to the occurrence of cold or dry seasons. In areas of the world where it does not get very cold or dry, moderate or warm temperate zones and wet tropical zones, most trees are evergreen.Conifers (trees with cones like pines, spruces and firs) and other gymnosperms can tolerate cold better than broadleaved trees, so they tend to be the main evergreen where temperatures get very cold.Some examples of evergreens are: ConifersEucalyptsRhododendronMangroveSouthern Magnolia (magnolia grandiflora).Any Southern hemisphere beech
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
no
Evergreen trees do not change color in fall and winter because they do not lose chlorophyll due to evaporation. The needles are covered in an oily substance preventing the loss of chlorophyll and shielding it against frost.
Yes the leaves fall on trees like pecan, oak, sycamore, and other types of trees. Pine, and cedar wont change at all from spring, summer, fall and winter. Not sure about more southern parts of Florida where orange and palm trees flourish.
All are examples of chemical changes
I would say summer, because in spring, the leaves are just starting to grow. In fall, the leaves change color and fall off. In winter there are no leaves. In summer the leaves have all grown back and are prospering.
The deciduous forest has four distinct seasons, spring, summer, autumn, and winter. In the autumn the leaves change color. During the winter months the trees lose their leaves.

All leaves will eventually drop off trees... there is no real way to prevent that from happening. Leaves die and gravity does the rest. However, trees in the tropical rainforests are not deciduous-- meaning they do not drop all of their leaves in autumn. Because it is summer year-round in the tropical rainforests, there is no autumn and the leaves do not change colors or all fall at once.
Trees lose their leaves all the time, but rainforests do not shed their leaves all at once.
The change in the color of tree leaves in fall is actually a chemical change caused by the breakdown of chlorophyll. The colors we see are due to pigments that were present in the leaves all along, but were masked by the dominant green color of chlorophyll during the growing season.
Deciduous trees lose all their leaves in the Autumn.
