Trees in cities help improve air quality by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, while also filtering pollutants like sulfur dioxide, ammonia, and nitrogen oxides. Additionally, urban trees provide much-needed shade, reducing heat islands in cities and improving residents' comfort. They also enhance the aesthetic value of urban spaces, provide habitats for wildlife, and contribute to mental well-being.","mcq_options":[{"right":"no","answer":"Increased timber production"},{"right":"yes","answer":"Improved air quality and shade in cities"},{"right":"no","answer":"Expansion of wildlife habitats"},{"right":"no","answer":"Reduction of agricultural pests"}],"multi_answers":"no","subject_terms":[{"id":1846,"title":"Geography of the United States","slug":"geography-of-the-united-states"}],"topic_terms":[{"id":1762,"title":"Agriculture of the United States","slug":"agriculture-of-the-united-states"},{"id":1761,"title":"Forestry and Fisheries of the United States","slug":"forestry-and-fisheries-of-the-united-states"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq\/11590","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mcq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3502"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11590"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11590"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=11590"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=11590"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
