Leaves help trees breathe by opening holes that allow bad air in. The trunk provides housing for animals like squirrels and badgers. Roots take in water and food for the tree and help it grow. The sun provides photosynthesis, which is how trees breathe. Trees breathe the air we exhale and use water through their roots as food to grow and produce fresh air.
