Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 2 : Canopy of the tree 

The Correct Answer is Canopy of the tree.

 

  • The canopy refers to the arrangement of tree branches.
  • The canopy looks like a roof over the other plants
  • It has two components: the vertical structure and the horizontal structure.
  • The leaves here are broader and so on raining water drips from the canopy to the forest floor.
  • It restricts the sunlight and rains from getting into the layers which are below the canopy
  • The canopy of a rainforest is typically about 10m thick and intercepts around 95% of sunlight.

 

  • The Under Storey is the layer of trees and shrubs that grows beneath the forest canopy but above the forest floor.
  • The Shoots gives rise to stems, leaves, and flowers.
  • The shoot system is functionally responsible for food production (photosynthesis) and reproduction.
