• A.
  True
• B.
  False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

• Deforestation refers to the cutting down of trees and clearing the forest for various purposes.
• But trees plays an important role in maintaining the overall temperature by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. Due to deforestation, carbon dioxide is getting accumulated at a rapid rate in the atmosphere.
• An excessive amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere traps the heat reflected by the earth which increases the overall temperature resulting in global warming.
