Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Deforestation is a precursor to desertification. A desert is an extremely arid region with little to no rainfall. How does this happen?
Plants contributes a significant proportion of water to the water cycle. During transpiration, water evaporates from the body parts of a plant and this water goes to the atmosphere. The water cools and condenses to form precipitation
When forests are removed, this significant proportion of the water cycle is lost. The water from plants would no longer be available for precipitation. Such an area will suffer drastic changes in the amount of precipitation it receives.
