How can forest conservation help reduce the possibility of floods?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Tree roots bind the soil and help rainwater infiltrate it

In forests, tree roots hold the soil together and allow some rainwater to infiltrate into it. This slows surface runoff, reduces soil erosion, and lowers the chance of a sudden large flow of water into rivers. Option B is the opposite effect because faster surface runoff increases flood risk. Exam tip: link forest cover with infiltration, reduced runoff, and soil conservation.
