It's very cold in winter. How do trees spend the winter?

When the weather is cold, trees will choose to reduce their water. This is obviously manifested in the fact that in winter, the branches and leaves of most trees will wither, leaving only the trunk, which can reduce the loss of water and reduce the impact of weather on the water of trees themselves, so most trees can survive the winter safely.

The magical creator of nature has considered some influences of climate on plants, and plants that can survive naturally have their own unique ability to keep out the cold. Like some big trees, they will shed their leaves and wither unnecessary branches in autumn, thus reducing the evaporation of water. Because the weather is very cold in winter, the higher the water content of the trees themselves, the greater the impact of cold weather. Therefore, picking these branches and leaves can naturally reduce the water content, that is to say, the impact of cold on the trees is reduced, and their trunks can withstand this low temperature.

There are also some evergreen trees, such as pine trees, which are not affected by climate. Even if the temperature is relatively low, it can still maintain dense green branches and leaves, because it is relatively short, and its trees do not contain high water, so it does not feel too much cold, and its water storage capacity is relatively small, so most pine trees can be evergreen all year round and are not affected by the weather. Others, such as poplars and locust trees, will shed their leaves in a fixed season, and then increase their ability to resist the cold by reducing their own water content.

Everything in nature has its own unique viability until now. Whether it is to keep out the cold in the cold winter or to reduce the impact on itself in the rainy season, trees have their own unique methods. Trees will constantly change shape because of the environment, and natural selection will lead to survival of the fittest. This is the basic evolutionary influence.
