Detailed explanation-1: -The tree is finally killed when its roots are uprooted and it scorches and chokes in sunlight and air. This process leads to the browning, hardening, twisting and thereby, withering of the roots.
Detailed explanation-2: -He states that to kill a tree completely, its roots need to be taken out of the deep soil where it is hiding inside the Earth. The root is the strength of the tree. It gives support to the tree and its most vulnerable as well as the sensitive part. It needs to be snapped out entirely from deep inside the Earth.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer: When the tree is cut, it does not die, it simply grows back, as if nothing had happened. To kill a tree, one must pull out its roots. Hence, when the tree’s roots are pulled, the tree finally dies.
Detailed explanation-4: -There are two causes for root rot, but the main cause is poorly drained or overwatered soils. These soggy conditions prevent roots from absorbing all the oxygen they require to live. As the oxygen-starved roots die and decay, their rot can spread to healthier roots, even if the soggy conditions have been rectified.
Detailed explanation-5: -Answer: The tree will go through a process of browning, hardening, twisting and withering. Then ultimately, the tree gets killed.
