Answer:

Plants are able to grow more easily.

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to the loss of trees, the roots keep the surrounding soil hydrated allowing plants and trees to grow, without trees the dirt slowly will become very dry and cracked, causing the dirt to become dehydrated, which makes plants die because the water will go straight down low where plants cant reach.
