A person would have the least difficulty classifying ___as a tree or a shrub. a/cactus b/fern c/oak d/palm?

Question

I'm working on a take home psychology exam, and need to try to figure this question out. I think Oak is the most logical answer, but I want to see what other people think. Your responses will be greatly appreciated! Thanks So much!

Answer 1

Oak is correct. =) They're much more recognized than palm trees, most people don't think of cacti as trees. As far as fern though, I don't know, because that's definitely a shrub.

Answer 2

I would also choose oak ... solid, woody trunk, branches, tall, and so on.
