Question 9

The branchy part of a tree above the stem is known as
(a) Crown
(b) Canopy
(c) Sapling
(d) Humus

Answer 1

The answer is option (a).

The branchy part of a tree above the stem is known as the crown of the tree. The crown includes the top part of a tree which has all the branches and leaves of the tree. Humus is the dead remains of animals and plants decomposed by microorganisms. The branches of the tall trees look like a roof over the other plants in the forest. This is called a canopy. Sapling is a small young plant with a slender stem which later grows into a tree.
