A forest is dense if it feels like a crowd of trees, and sparse if there are only a few. Imagine standing in the middle of a big park: if every inch has a tree, that’s dense. If most of the space is open, that’s sparse. Trees grow where they can find enough sunlight, water, and room to spread out.
Examples
- A dense forest feels like standing in a big crowd at recess.
- A sparse forest is like walking through an empty parking lot.
- A forest with medium density is like being in a classroom with some desks occupied and others empty.
