Imagine a tree like a giant pencil, its strength depends on how it's built. Some trees are like strong pencils, with thick layers and lots of support inside. Others are more like weak pencils that snap easily when you press too hard. Trees get their strength from things like roots, trunks, and even the way they grow.
Examples
- A tree with deep roots stays standing even in a strong wind.
- A tall tree with thin bark is more likely to break than one with thick bark.
- Trees that grow quickly in a sunny field are often weaker than those growing slowly in the shade.
