Solution

The correct option is C

enrich soil fertility


The correct option is C:

Explanation of the correct option:

  1. The fallen leaves keep the soil and roots warm, hold moisture and also prevent the weeds from growing around the trees.
  2. In the long run, these leaves break down and form a rich, organic compost which is having all the nutrients required for the growth of the tree and this is how it enriches the soil.

The explanation for the incorrect options:

Option A: only the fallen leaves are not enough to solve the problem of fuelwood and also when they are burned they produce a lot of smoke which is not good for the environment.

Option B: fallen leaves instead of enriching the water quality will make it poor.

Option D: fallen leaves do not beautify the landscape.

Final answer: Fallen leaves from the tree are useful because they enrich the soil fertility
