Most of the trees there are hardwoods like, oak, poplar, maple, and elms, these trees all have wide leaves, unlike conifers like pines, spruce, cedars and junipers, which are called also evergreens.
The terms Coniferous and Deciduous refer to two different types of trees. Deciduous trees have broad leaves, which they shed every year. For example, Oak, Birch and Maple. Conifers have much smaller, needle or scale like foliage. For example, Pine, Cedar and Spruce. Sometimes forests are classified according to the type of tree they contain the most of. For example if you were to go out into a forest that contained mostly oak trees, with the odd poplar you'd be correct in assuming you were in a deciduous forest.
A Deciduous tree
Deciduous means the tree loses its leaves completely in either the cold season or the dry season. This is usually winter. In North America 'deciduous tree' commonly is a term used by people and garden centers for any broad-leaf tree (apples, elms, maples etc), because across most of the US and Canada all broad-leaf trees lose their leaves in autumn (fall). Most North Americans call conifers (plants that carry their seeds in cones and typically have needle-like leaves - pines, yews, cedars, etc) 'evergreens' because most of them keep their leaves all year round. However, some conifers also lose their leaves each year, like the larch and the pond cypress. These are 'deciduous conifers'. In places like Australia most of the continent doesn't get very cold, so deciduous trees (trees that drop their leaves) are almost completely absent. Most of the trees in Australia, such as eucalyptus, are broad-leaf trees (so, have flowers not cones) but keep their leaves all year, so are 'evergreen'. A very small number of tropical eucalyptus species, however, are deciduous dropping their leaves for the dry season. So eucalyptus are mostly 'broad-leaf evergreen' trees.
Broad leaves refer to wide leaves and commonly found in deciduous trees. Some common trees with broad leaves include oak, maple, birch and elm.
They adapt to the deciduous forest by shedding their leaves in the fall and they regrow them in the spring to avoid being killed by drying and freezing temperatures. Thus they survive through the winters. They also shed their leaves so they do not lose water rapidly.~Unknown Tree Examiner
tend to contain more broad leaf evergreen trees
dunno. Please answer this! Someone! Had this for a HW assignment. had no idea.

Most deciduous trees are angiosperms (flowering plants) and also called "broad leaf" trees, in comparison to the needles on conifers. There are, however, some deciduous conifers, such as the larch and tamarack.

Broad leaves.
Broad leaf trees drop their leaves in Autumn and are known as deciduous.
The following are the major types of vegetation identified in our country: (a) Tropical Evergreen Forests or Tropical Rain Forest (b) Tropical Deciduous Forests or Tropical Monsoon vegetation (c) Tropical Thorn Forests and Scrubs (d) Mountain Forests or Himalayan Vegetation (e) Mangrove Forests (f) Semi-deciduous forests or grasslands / Desert Vegetation
There are two main types, evergreen and deciduous. Broad leafed is just another term for deciduous.
Yes, they live in broad-leafed forests with undergrowth of bamboo.
Yes a maple is a broad leaf tree and is deciduous.
