Answer: The author makes the trees seem human to show that the tree produces a lot of fruits

Explanation:

This is from the Spider Monkey and the Marmoset.

The author makes the tree seem human to show that the tree produces a lot of fruits.

Making an object seem human is known as personification in English Language. It is when an object is given human qualities.

Here, the tree is made to seem human to make its function clearer. Because the readers can easily understand and relate with human traits, authors go ahead to use personification.
