Question

6) In Medieval times a ruler told the peasants that they were free to take anything from the forest that had fallen, branches, trees, leaves etc. But they were not to take any live standing trees. Within a few years the forest was dying. Why

Answer 1

Answer:

Due to lack of nutrients in the soil.

Explanation:

Within a few years the forest was dying because there is no nutrient is present in the soil which can trigger the growth and development of the sol. The fallen parts of trees such as branches, tree and leaves etc are decomposed by decomposers such as bacteria and fungi which turn the fallen materials into nitrogenous materials which can be used by the plant for its growth and development.
