Answer:

The correct answer will be - the sugar is not transported to roots

Explanation:

The girdling is performed on tress by making a groove of 1 cm in the bark of a tree.

The girdling activity removes the phloem tissue of the trees which help in the conduction of the sugar and other useful nutrients in the trees.

Since the phloem is present on the outside portion of the vascular cambium due to the secondary growth, therefore, removing the bark and making a groove in the tree removes the portion of the phloem. The removal of the phloem stops the blockage of the sugar to the roots as a result of which the root dies and water is not absorbed. This leads to the death of the tree after some time.

Thus, the sugar is not transported to roots is the correct answer.

How do animals live in tempeture forest<br>​
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

<em>Well, Animals in temperate deciduous forests have to adapt to changing seasons. They must be able to cope with cold winters and hot summers. Some animals hibernate or migrate during the winter to escape the cold. This is an essential adaptation because black bears often live in hollowed trees. Hope That Helps!</em>
