It will be classified as a hardwood if the trees’ seeds have a coating in the shape of a fruit or shell. And it will be classified as softwood if the seeds the tree produces don’t have any type of coating.]]> 2022-05-18 19:34:33 UTC https://padlet.com/cristinarodriguezc1/3xghdrsr02317y9v/wish/2190082782 HARDWOOD cristinarodriguezc1 https://padlet.com/cristinarodriguezc1/3xghdrsr02317y9v/wish/2190084338 Come from deciduous trees losing their leaves annually, they grow at a slower pace and therefore the wood is denser. Hardwood trees are known as angiosperms and produce covered seeds with skin or shell, which could be a fruit or a nut. Hardwood, although it is more expensive, most of the time is denser and it is more durable and resistant.]]> 2022-05-18 19:35:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cristinarodriguezc1/3xghdrsr02317y9v/wish/2190084338 TYPES OF HARDWOOD cristinarodriguezc1 https://padlet.com/cristinarodriguezc1/3xghdrsr02317y9v/wish/2190084928 2022-05-18 19:36:31 UTC https://padlet.com/cristinarodriguezc1/3xghdrsr02317y9v/wish/2190084928 CHARACTERISTICS cristinarodriguezc1 https://padlet.com/cristinarodriguezc1/3xghdrsr02317y9v/wish/2190085692
