what kind of adaptation is the loss of tree leaves in the fall? i don't really understand what my teacher is asking here
All adaptations are due to environmental limitations favoring the selection of certain variations in traits over others. This particular adaptation, dormancy, allows the species to survive seasonal climate fluctuations. It is a seasonal adaptation to abiotic factors.
Weather and seasonal changes impact the available resources so the behavior of living things are modified to survive the period of limitations until resources are once more available. Those organisms able to become dormant and store enough food to regrow their leaf canopy with the return of clement weather can occupy the niche and make use of it as perennial residents.
