Question

If someone grew lots of trees close to each other, would this become a forest?

Answer 1

Hint: Forests are naturally made by the environment on the surface of Earth. Humans artificially can make only parks or gardens or greenhouses.

Complete answer: If we grow trees close to each other, it will not make forest – instead, it will make a park or garden.
When we plant trees very close to each other, it cannot take nutrition from the soil.
This is because a large number of trees will present in a small area and all the trees will absorb water and nutrients from that particular area itself – which will lead to the shortage of water and nutrients after a certain time.
As a result, the trees will die after a certain period of time.
The trees which are resistant or can tolerate stress – they will survive and make a garden.

Note: Forests can be defined as a large area that is covered predominantly with trees and undergrowth.
The major forest that is present in India is – Sundarban, Gir forest, Jim Corbett forest, Bandipur Forest, Nilgiri Forest, etc.
Amazon Tropical rainforest is an example of the world’s biggest forests.
Forests provide 75% of the gross primary productivity in the environment and contain 80% of the biomass of plants that are present on Earth.
