Trees can be healthy or unhealthy and you can tell this by if there are any holes, scratches, roots are exposed, or if it missing branches or leaves. Pollen can travel long distances and is necessary for plant reproduction of angiosperms. Bees are very important because they transport pollen and is important in health of the planet. |
Research Question |
What is health of the trees in forest? |
Predictions |
The trees behind the school will be healthy. |
Experimental Design |
We identified and assessed tree health. Trees that had damaged bark, holes, broken branches, rotting, and exposed roots were considered healthy. |
Conclusion |
We concluded that the trees in the forest were mostly unhealthy overall, even though, in the plot we studied at the base of the forest were healthier compared to the other plots. In future studies, we would study the following questions: What species of trees were healthy and which species were unhealthy? |
