Q
People say that nothing goes waste in a forest. Can you explain, how?
A
Soln:
Nothing goes waste in a forest for the following reasons
- Dry leaves and remains of dead animals are converted to a dark coloured substance called humus. This provides nutrients to the plants.
- Dead animals become food for vultures, crows, jackals and insects.
- Broken branches of trees are used as fuel by the people living in the vicinity of the forest.
