Changes in day length and temperature are what makes plants do their
‘seasonal' change.
Evergreen trees do not actually stay ‘evergreen'. They do lose their old
leaves, usually in Springtime, but they never lose all of their
leaves at the same time like deciduous trees.
Deciduous trees lose their leaves because they are not hardy enough to survive
the cold of Winter. The tree absorbs the chlorophyll from the leaves and then
the wastes of the tree are moved into the leaves.
The change of seasons relates to the Earth spinning around the sun.
Some other planets have seasons too! Mars has seasons, but they only vary from
extremely cold to absolutely freezing.
Snow is formed when crystals of ice form around bits of dirt carried into the
atmosphere. More and more of these crystals join together to form a snowflake,
until it is heavy enough to fall.
A snowflake is made up from 2 to 200 separate crystals.
Snow is transparent!
The shapes of snowflakes are determined by the temperature that they are
created at.
Some places have only two seasons. Wet and Dry!
