Assessment: WAEC SSCE - Geography - 2012 (Objective) Subject: Geography

Question 1 Report

Trees are deciduous when they
Answer Details
Deciduous trees are those that generally shed their leaves during one season of the year. This is usually in autumn or fall, before winter, in response to changes in the length of daylight and temperature. Shedding their leaves allows the tree to conserve water and energy during the winter months when there is less sunlight and lower temperatures. In contrast, evergreen trees do not shed their leaves at any season of the year and retain their leaves throughout the year.
