Deciduous

Loading image...

A tree that sheds its leaves each year, like an oak or maple tree

Real World Example

Think about how every year, you go through your closet to get rid of clothes you no longer wear. This is similar to how deciduous trees shed their leaves each year to prepare for the changing seasons. Just as you clear out old clothes to make room for new and adapt to different weather, deciduous trees drop their leaves to conserve energy and resources during the winter, ready to grow fresh leaves in the spring.
