Remember this!
Tree and plant are both living organisms that produce oxygen through photosynthesis. However, the difference between tree and plant is their size, structure, lifespan, usage, and location. A tree is a large, woody perennial plant with a single stem or trunk, supporting branches and leaves, often used for lumber, paper, or fuel. Whereas, a plant is a multicellular organism with roots, stems, and leaves, often grown for food, medicine, or decoration.
