Answer:
1. the tree lifts the relatively small plant upp off the ground and into the air so it can reach the sunlight. this helps the orchids survive in the dense canopy condition of the tropical forest.
2.Being in the canopy also allows the orchids to recieve more sunlight for photosynthesis.However the orchids recieve nutrients from the air and compost on the trees..
3.orchids are epiphytes (plants that grow on other plants).orchids do not harm the trees they grow in. they roots stay on the bark of the tree; they do not take water or nutrients from the tree.
4.Epiphytic orchids grow on trees.they do not obtain energy or nutrients from the trees.Water and nutrients are obtained from the air and from compost on the trees.
