Coniferous vs. Deciduous

Coniferous trees Subalpine fir Douglas fir Shore pine Ponderosa pine

Conifers Habitats: Needle-like leaves Plains/high desert Bogs/swamps Coast Mountains Needle-like leaves Waxy coat that helps prevent water loss

Deciduous trees Vine maple Pacific dogwood Red alder Bitter cherry

Deciduous trees Habitats Broad leaves Wet areas Near streams, riverbanks, lakes Broad leaves Big leaves capture sunlight easily Leaves are easily damaged Die/fall off in autumn

Advantages How do conifers “leaves” help them? How do deciduous trees leaves help them? Can you make inferences based on the habitat of these trees?
