Open in App
Solution

Forests:

  1. A forest is a wide region of land that is densely forested with herbs, bushes, trees, and grasses.
  2. The trees provide a unique ecosystem, which influences the types of animals and plants that may live in the forest.
  3. Forest functions may be divided into three categories: productive, protective, and regulatory.

Any two uses include:

  1. Forests are an essential source of energy for fuelwood, which is used for cooking and heating, particularly in rural regions.
  2. They protect the soil against erosion and drought and its roots bind the soil and keep it from eroding due to wind or water.
