Answer 1

Oak trees prefer level or gently sloping land with rich, well-drained soils.  If the soil quality isn't good, pines tend to dominate the forest instead of oak.

Oak forests occur in temperate zones.  In the eastern U.S., they commonly occur between 32 and 42 degrees north latitude.

Oak forests do will with between 35-45 inches of precipitation per year.

Oak seedlings are shade tolerant.  After they mature, they require full sun to thrive.

Adaptations:  Oak trees are strong trees, well adapted to withstand the occasional windstorm.
