Animals play a major part in the widespread of trees in the forest. Explain how.

Solution

Animals eat the fruits from different trees and disperse the seeds which cause the spread of plants to such large areas. Also, certain seeds get stuck on the animal or human body, which also leads to dispersion.

(iv) Trees in tropical forests are mostly evergreen and year-round leaf canopies impede pollen dispersal by wind.
(v) Flowering in tropical forests occurs over a short period of time when wind is absent.
