Question 8(b)

Why are the coniferous trees found in mountain forests in conical shape?

Answer

Since coniferous trees are found in cold regions, they are well adapted to the cold climate. Their leaves are conical in shape so that the snow slides off easily from the branches without causing any damage to them.
