What is the dominant vegetation found in temperate forests?
What organism adaptations have evolved for survival in this biome?
Plant Adaptations
The deciduous trees in the temperate forests have thin, broad, light-weight leaves that can capture a lot of sunlight. This allows them to make food by photosynthesis. New leaves grow in the spring, after the trees drop their leaves when the weather starts getting cold to lessen their water loss before the snow weighs them down. Temperate forest trees also have thick bark to protect against cold during the winter seasons.
