Trees are tall, woody plants. They usually have a stem called a trunk. Trees are the largest and oldest living things on Earth. Some trees live for hundreds or even thousands of years. There are more than 80,000 species, or types, of tree. Well-known trees include birches, firs, maples, palms, and pines.
Scientists divide trees into groups based on how they reproduce. Some trees reproduce with spores, or particles that grow into new plants. They are called tree ferns. Most trees reproduce with seeds. Some seed-bearing trees grow their seeds in cones. They are called conifers. Most seed-bearing trees grow their seeds in fruits or pods. They are known as broad-leaved or flowering trees.
Scientists also group trees based on whether they lose their leaves. Trees that keep their leaves year-round are called evergreens. Trees that lose their leaves during the winter are called deciduous trees.
