FOREST BIOMETRICS ACTUAL TEST SCRIPT
COMPLETE QUESTIONS WITH ACCURATE
SOLUTIONS
●● Xylem Embolism
Answer: An air bubble that blocks a tree's internal water tubes during a
drought, making it impossible for the tree to drink.
●● Assisted Migration
Answer: Manually moving plant seeds from their native areas to cooler
northern regions so the future forest is ready for climate change.
●● Phytoncides
Answer: Airborne chemicals released by trees that lower human stress
and help our immune systems fight off illnesses when we breathe them
in.
●● Monoculture
Answer: Planting only one single type of tree over a massive area, which
makes the whole forest easily wiped out by just one disease.
●● Silviculture
, Answer: The deliberate practice of controlling the growth, health, and
quality of a forest to meet specific environmental or wood needs.
●● Hydraulic Failure
Answer: When a tree dries out so badly from heat and drought that its
internal water-delivery system completely shuts down, causing it to die.
●● Ecosystem Simplification
Answer: The loss of biodiversity that occurs when human stress leaves a
forest with only a few tough species, making the ecosystem unstable.
●● Overstory Retention
Answer: Leaving mature, older trees standing during a harvest to shade
the ground, protect fungal networks, and help the forest recover.
●● Anoxia
Answer: A total lack of oxygen in waterlogged or compacted forest soils,
which suffocates tree roots and causes them to rot.
●● LiDAR
Answer: A remote-sensing technology that shoots lasers from planes or
satellites to map the forest in 3D and measure tree heights.
●● Biomass
