Please Help Next to Mark’s house, there is a large meadow with small plants and no trees. Behind the meadow is a dense forest with large trees. On a hot summer day, Mark recorded the temperatures in the meadow and in the middle of the forest. Based on the results of your experiment, which place was cooler and why?

Answer:

The meadow with small plants and no tree will be hotter than the dense forest with large trees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The large trees will serve as shade from direct sunlight

the forest would be cooler because the trees are thick and no sunlight is allowed through. things are much cooler when there’s no sunlight allowed near them- think about the difference on a hot summers day sitting in unshaded grass vs sitting in shady grass under a big tree.
