How can the relation between deforestation and soil erosion be understood?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When trees are removed, roots can no longer bind the soil effectively, so rain or wind may carry it away

Tree roots hold soil particles together and help stabilise land, especially on slopes. The tree canopy also reduces the direct impact of raindrops on bare soil. After deforestation, soil is exposed and can be more easily washed away by rain or blown away by wind, increasing erosion. Option B is incorrect because removing forests generally reduces soil stability and water retention. Exam tip: remember vegetation cover as a natural method of soil conservation.
