What is the difference between a coniferous plant and a
deciduous plant?

Answer Posted / anithaisro

1. A coniferous forest has trees like evergreens, they
never lose their leaves and they are always green. Like a
chirstmas tree before it's cut. A deciduous forest is a
forest where the leaves on the trees do turn colors and
eventually fall of in the fall and winter.

2. Coniferous forests are found in colder climates, in fact
the further north you go the less deciduous trees you will
find. This also holds true for hot climates .

3. Coniferous trees have evolved needles and thick sap so
they lose less moisture to the elements while deciduous
trees are usually located in areas of abundant moisture.
