Question

What are the special features of coniferous trees?

• A. The needle like leaves do not allow snow to settle.
• B. The sloping nature of the tree leaves behave like slopping roofs.
• C. These trees do not produce flowers but produce cones.
• D. All of the above.

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above.

Coniferous trees have leaves which are very thin and in the shape of needles. These trees don’t bear flowers but produce cones and hence are called coniferous trees. These trees grow in areas with snowfall. Hence these trees have needle like leaves which do not allow the snow to rest on them. The tree itself is shaped in such a way that the snow slips down the side.
