Solution

Trees:

  1. Trees are the most important natural resource for all the living organisms in this world.
  2. If there are no trees around us following situations can occur:
    1. Without trees, forest areas would become drier and more prone to extreme droughts.
    2. Oxygen - carbon dioxide cycle would be disturbed.
    3. Due to the absence of the firm roots of these trees and the barrier effect they provide, heavy rains would lead to frequent flooding.
    4. Massive erosion would impact oceans, smothering coral reefs and other marine habitats too.
    5. Islands stripped of trees would lose their barriers to the ocean, and many would be washed away.
