What is the difference between Deciduous and Evergreen Trees?
• Opposite of deciduous is known as evergreen where foliage persist throughout the entire year.
• Deciduous trees are adapted to tolerate the cold and dry weather conditions by shedding their leaves seasonally, whereas evergreens do not.
• Evergreens can survive under low nutrient levels in the soil. But a huge portion of internal nutrients is removed during the defoliation in deciduous trees.
• Nutrient requirement of evergreens is somewhat high during bad weather conditions due to need of the foliage maintenance. But in the case of deciduous plants it is high after the harsh time because of renewal of the foliage.
• Deciduous plants are more sensitive to changes in temperature and rain fall than evergreen plants.

he word "Deciduous" means "falling off or out at a certain season". That explains why deciduous forestmeans a forest in which the leaves fall off the trees when the winter comes. The deciduous forests are located in the temperate zone above the tropicalforests and below the coniferous forests.

1)Lofty, dense, multi layered forests.
2)Average height of trees is between 45-60 metres.
3)Trees have broad leaves.
4)Different trees shed their leaves at different times of the year, so they are called 'Evergreen'.
5)Trees form a canopy and don't allow sunrays to reach the ground.
6)There is an undergrowth of canes, bamboos, ferns, climbers, etc.
7)Ebony, Mahogany, Rosewood, etc. are the variety of trees found in this forest.
Deciduous Forest :
1)Deciduous Forests spread on a larger area than Evergreen Forests.
2)The average height of trees is 25-60 metres.
3)The trees shed their leaves for 6-8 weeks during summer.
4)The tress allow enough sunlight to reach the ground and facilitates growth of climbers.
5)Teak, sal, sandalwood, shisham and many other trees are found in this forests.

In terms of climate, deciduous forests are found mainly in moderate and tropical areas, while evergreen forests, also known as coniferous forests, are found in colder climates, both in terms of latitude and elevation. Evergreen forests are more adapted to harsher conditions in the form of lower amounts of sunlight, stronger winds and colder temperatures. Deciduous forests are found mainly in areas that experience seasonal changes through the year, which explains the loss of leaves in the fall and new growth and buds in the spring. In many areas where a moderate climate prevails, mixed-deciduous forests contain a combination of evergreens and deciduous trees.
Plant AdaptationsIn each of the two forest types, trees and plants adapt to meet the conditions of the area's climate. Coniferous evergreen trees typically have rounded needles for leaves and branch patterns that are able to support the weight of snow during winter. Many evergreen trees also produce a biochemical antifreeze-type substance that helps to maintain basic life supporting functions during sub-freezing temperatures. Deciduous trees have broader leaves and more chlorophyll than evergreen trees in order to catch as much sunlight as possible during the warm season before they lose their leaves during winter. Deciduous trees are also able to seal off old buds with a protective covering during the winter to combat freezing temperatures.
SoilThe soil in a deciduous forest is notably richer and has a thicker organic layer than an evergreen forest. Fallen leaves in a deciduous forest are broken down, returning more nutrients to the soil; these nutrients are used by other plants in the understory. Typically, because of the deciduous forest's rich soil, there are several layers of plants between the main canopy and the forest floor. However, in an evergreen forest, old needles from evergreen trees make up a thin covering of the forest soil. The needles from an evergreen tree are typically acidic, making for a nutrient-poor soil. As a result, fewer understory plants are able to grow in an evergreen forest.
BiodiversityOne of the biggest differences between an evergreen and a deciduous forest is the amount of biodiversity found in a deciduous environment. Several different types of mammals live in deciduous forests; these are nut and acorn feeders, herbivores or omnivores. Some deciduous forest regions, such as the Great Smoky Mountains in North Carolina and Tennessee, have some of the richest biodiversity of plants, salamanders and slime molds in the world. On the other hand, fewer animals and fewer types of plants are able to survive the climatic extremes of the northern evergreen forests. These animals have made special adaptations to the cold. They include elk, caribou, reindeer, rabbits, squirrels and predators such as the lynx, wolverine, bobcat and wolf.

Deciduous and evergreen are two opposite types of trees. They are categorized by the pattern and seasonality of their foliage growth. Plants between deciduous and evergreen are known as semi-deciduous trees. They have characteristics of both. In this article, we’ll tell you the main differences between an evergreen and a deciduous tree.
What are deciduous trees?
Deciduous is a term that refers to trees which seasonally shed their unnecessary parts, such as leaves, from their structure. Most deciduous trees are broad leaf trees. Because of the structure of the leaves and the pattern of leaf arrangement, the effectiveness of photosynthesis is very high in deciduous trees. Unfortunately, deciduous trees have both positive and negative aspects to them. Since they shed their leaves seasonally (during autumn and winter usually), they are very susceptible to wind and other winter weather conditions.
The falling of the leaves helps them prepare for winter conditions. It ensures better survival in winter as well as high water conservation and protection against predatory actions. Deciduous tree characteristics are observable in many woody trees like oak and maple. There are two characteristic deciduous forests where the majority of trees shed their foliage at the end of their typical growing season. These are temperate deciduous forests and tropical (and subtropical) deciduous forests. Trees in temperate deciduous forests are sensitive to the seasonal temperature variations whereas the tropical deciduous trees respond to seasonal rainforest patterns.
What are evergreen trees?
The evergreen tree is a complete contrast to the deciduous tree. As the name implies, an evergreen’s foliage remains on the tree throughout the entire year. There is no seasonal leaf shedding. Evergreen plants have a huge deviation within them. They include most conifers and angiosperms such as hemlock, cycads, and eucalyptus trees.
This does not mean that evergreens never shed their foliage. Old leaves of evergreen trees are replaced by new growth as they age. Evergreen trees favor warm, temperate climates. Many tropical rainforests are considered evergreens.
What are the differences between a deciduous and an evergreen tree?
There are several important differences between a deciduous and an evergreen tree. We will list them for you here:
- Deciduous and evergreen trees are opposite each other. Deciduous trees shed their leaves seasonally and evergreen trees keep their foliage throughout the year.
- Deciduous trees are adapted to tolerate cold and dry weather conditions by shedding their leaves while evergreens do not.
- Evergreens can survive with low soil nutrients. A huge portion of internal nutrients is removed during the defoliation of deciduous trees.
- Nutrient requirements of evergreens are somewhat higher than those of deciduous trees during bad weather because of the need for foliage maintenance. In deciduous trees, it is high after harsh weather when the foliage is renewed.
- Deciduous trees are more sensitive to temperature and rain fall than evergreen trees.

The main?difference between evergreen?and?deciduous forest?is that the trees?in an evergreen forest?do not shed their leaves during a particular season where as the trees?in a deciduous forest?shed their leaves during the dry season.

* These religions were easy to practice
* They were preached in language spoken commonly by the masses
* They did not believe in the caste system and preached the idea of social equality

Evergreen forests are forests whose trees do not shed leaves throughout the year as the recieve plenty of rainfall and don't need to save water by shedding leaves . On the other hand deciduos forests are forests whose trees do shed thier leaves in yhe summer season
Hope your doubt has been cleared
