Question

Tropical rain forests tend to have soils that are nutrient poor, and most of the nutrients are found in the top few inches of the soil. Which adaptation is most likely found in tropical trees?

Answer 1

Answer:

B) shallow root systems

Explanation:

Google says: "The leaves of forest trees have adapted to cope with exceptionally high rainfall. Many tropical rainforest leaves have a drip tip. It is thought that these drip tips enable rain drops to run off quickly. Plants need to shed water to avoid growth of fungus and bacteria in the warm, wet tropical rainforest."

This means that the ground where the tree's roots are is very wet, and the roots need water to help the tree grow, so the roots will adapt to grow higher to where the wet ground is, therefore stating that option B) shallow root systems  is the correct choice.
