Describe the leaves of trees that live in the taiga.
Answer (2)
The taiga's evergreen coniferous trees, such as pines, spruces, and firs, have needle-shaped leaves which enable them to photosynthesize early in the spring and give them a competitive advantage in the nutrient-poor soils of this biome. ;
The leaves of trees in the taiga are needle-shaped and evergreen, allowing them to conserve water, reduce exposure to cold winds, and photosynthesize effectively in low-light conditions. They retain nitrogen-rich needles year-round, giving them a competitive advantage in the nutrient-poor soils of the taiga. This unique leaf structure supports survival and growth in the challenging environment of the boreal forest.
