Answer:

Maple and oak trees are both deciduous angiosperms, so the wood each produces is classified as a hardwood. However, the difference between maple and oak wood is significant, and it would be difficult to mistake one for the other. All species of oak display a distinctive well-defined grain pattern whereas the maple wood grain tends to be creamy white with little visible grain. The differences don't stop there, but to really appreciate them, it's important to realize that within the broad category defined by oak is a subset of species that differ significantly from each other. The same is true for maple
