Conifers are well adapted to cold and dry conditions. List at least three reasons why this is.
Pine trees are coniferous trees native to most areas of the Northern Hemisphere. Pines produce seeds in the form of pine cones. In some species, pine cones open automatically upon maturation to release seeds. Other species rely solely on birds to break open the pine cones to disperse the seeds. In still others, a resin holds the pine cones closed until a forest fire melts the resin and the seeds can be released. Immediately after a forest fire, what type of growth would pine trees experience?* O Logistic O Exponential O Linear O Parabolic
What would be the appearance of secondary tissue in trees growing in regions of the planet without clearly defined seasons?
