7 0

Answer:

Deforestation is both the removal of trees and the permanent retasking of the land for non-forestry purposes. Therefore, since tree roots help aerate soil and improve soil water retention, this permanent removal of trees reduces the amount of water that soil can absorb and increases the amount that will perforce flow over the ground as runoff. Increased surface runoff leads to flooding.
