Solution

The correct option is A True
Trees in general are known as 'lungs of Earth' because they absorb large amounts of carbon dioxide and release large amounts of oxygen due to photosynthesis. This helps maintain a balance between the proportion of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere as the oxygen released by the plants during photosynthesis is utilized by various organisms including plants for respiration.
So, the correct answer is 'True'
