Answer to Question 1

ANS:Forests
filter rain as it falls and help reduce erosion of the soil. They trap soil sediment and help
maintain water quality. Trees and shrubs of the forest are also instrumental in removing many of the
pollutant materials from the air and from water runoff. Similarly, the roots of trees filter excess
nutrients from water runoff. They also help reduce the harmful effects of excess fertilizer nutrients that
enter streams and underground water systems.



Answer to Question 2

ANS:Plywood
is a construction material made of thin layers of wood glued together.
