Question

Trees are normally cone-shaped on the -------.

Answer 1

Hint: In a restricted area, generally in the form of a peak, trees are typically cone-shaped on the large landform that rises above the surrounding land. They are produced through tectonic forces or volcanism. The earth's crust can be lifted by these forces locally.

Complete answer:
Trees in the mountains are usually cone-shaped. If there is snowfall, snow accumulates on the branches and leaves. The conical design of trees prevents as much snow from falling as it would have on wider forms. The conical design of the trees also helps to make the snowfall very easy and to get the sunlight that allows the trees to adjust to that climate.
Pine-like trees are known as coniferous trees. The word is derived from the tree's shape.
The cone-like form helps to adapt to the environment in which it thrives. The shape of the cone allows snow to drop down on the leaves and branches and not to accumulate. Snow accumulation is not permitted by the strong needle-like leaves.
Less accumulation of snow tends to hold the tree steady, reducing the spoiling of leaves due to reduced snow accumulation. The form is also an enabler of wind resistance in higher altitudes.
So, the correct answer is, ‘Mountains’.

Note: A typical pattern tends to follow altitudinal zones. Trees will not grow at the highest elevations, and any life may be present would be of the alpine kind, resembling tundra. Just below the tree line, one may find subalpine forests of needle leaf trees, which can withstand cold and dry conditions. Montane forests grow below that. These forests tend to be needle-leaf trees in the temperate portions of the world, while they can be broadleaf trees growing in a rainforest in the tropics.
