The stratosphere is the second major layer in the Earth's atmosphere. It is located above the troposphere and below the mesosphere. An interesting characteristic of this layer is that heat increases with altitude due to ultraviolet light being absorbed from the sun within the ozone layer.

Precipitation in a deciduous forest can be in the form of rain or snow.
Andru [333]

Answer:

The statement is true.

Explanation:

eThe deciduous forests are forests that are found in temperate climates. They are dominated by trees that are well adapted for life in conditions where there are changes of seasons, thus they are able to survive in both high and low temperatures, with inconsistent precipitation, shorter droughts, etc.

Because of the change of seasons where these forests are found, the precipitation is manifested in more than one way. During the warmer part of the year, the precipitation comes in the form of rain. During the colder part of the year, the precipitation comes in the form of snow. Occasionally, the precipitation can come in other forms as well, such as hale or frozen rain.
