उत्तर
This statement is True.
Explanation:
Forests are dynamic ecosystems that are continuously growing, changing and regenerating. They undergo natural processes of growth, succession and regeneration over time. Trees and plants die and are replaced by new ones, allowing the forest to regenerate itself. Forests can recover from disturbances such as fires, storms or logging, as long as the ecosystem remains intact and the necessary conditions for regeneration are met.
