The fibers in the tree are not strong enough to stay still and hold in place, so they sway to prevent from snapping
Branches of a tree are flexible and able to move and bend in high wind velocity due to their structure and composition. The elasticity and strength of the tree's fibers allow the branches to sway without breaking. This flexibility helps to dissipate the force of the wind, reducing the risk of damage to the tree.
Because its part of a bigger orginism that also had to bend to survive. If a tree were rigid and not able to bend, a strong wind or ice storm would injure or kill it. Having the ability to bend or be flexible allows it to sway with the wind. Its also another reason why some trees drop their leaves during the fall and winter. To protect the tree from wind damage.
It depends how far you bend it.
This can vary on the power lines and trees. Typically it would not be the snow, but the ice, which would cause problems, though. Icicles forming on overhead power lines, weighing them down, or icicles on tree branches, causing them to bend or break and fall into the power lines, would be the most common problems in winter weather, rather than a certain amount of snowfall.
That depends on what you mean by "not bend". Nothing will bend if it just sits there, but if you attempt to bend it with even your hands, pure gold should bend at least some noticeable distance.

Trees are moving due to the wind blowing against their branches and leaves, causing them to sway and bend.
Coniferous trees have flexible branches that can bend without breaking under heavy snowfall. Additionally, their needle-like leaves reduce surface area for snow accumulation, which helps prevent branches from becoming weighed down. Finally, coniferous trees often have a conical shape that sheds snow easily, reducing the amount of weight on individual branches.
Yes. Palm trees are very flexible trees, since most of the species originated in tropical areas, which are frequented by monsoons, hurricanes and other tropical storms characterized by high velocity winds.
Because the houses block sunlight whereas the road is an open space
To bend tree branches effectively, gently apply pressure to the branch in the direction you want it to bend, using your hands or a tool like a branch bender. Be careful not to apply too much force to avoid damaging the branch. It's best to bend branches when they are young and flexible, usually in the spring or early summer.
Trees in snowy areas are conical in shape to prevent overwhelming amounts of snow from piling up on the branches and foliage. A large bushy tree would college huge amounts of snow on the top, easily breaking the branches and eventually killing the tree. The conical shape, with branches growing perpendicularly out of a vertical trunk allows the branches to bend slightly downward due to the extra weight of the snow without breaking, minimizing the amount of snow that may pile up on the branches.
To encourage a lemon tree to branch out more effectively, you can prune it regularly to remove dead or crowded branches, provide adequate sunlight and water, and use fertilizer specifically designed for citrus trees. Additionally, you can gently bend the branches to promote lateral growth and encourage the tree to produce more branches.
If there were no freely movable joints in the body, then our bones cannot bend and stretch and we would have become like a statue.
The speed of water at a river bend flows much faster and deeper on the outside of the bend. On the inside of the bend the velocity is much slower and shallower.
