statement 1:the roots of the trees of the forest hold the soil and prevent soil erosion. (true) statement 2:in forest the leaves of the trees overlap each other and form a canopy and when the rain falls on the leaves the leaves absorb the rain water and some water flows from the branches and remaining water fall on the small shrubs and it absorbs the water and the left over water is then absorbed by the soil so no floods will occur in the forests. (true) option B:statement 1 and statement 2 are true but statement 2 is not the correct explanation of statement 1
