Quiz Answers

Canopy. The canopy is the upper tree layer that intercepts sunlight and shapes microclimate.

Leaf Litter. Leaf litter supplies nutrients and habitat for decomposers and seedlings.

Mycorrhiza. Mycorrhizal fungi form mutualisms with roots to aid nutrient uptake.

Succession. Ecological succession describes how plant communities change over time after disturbance.

Edge Effect. Edges can have higher species richness but are vulnerable to invasive species.
