In tree support, what is a weak wooded tree?

A weak wooded tree refers to a tree that has a high risk of breaking, which encompasses various structural weaknesses that can be inherent or developed over time. Factors contributing to a tree being classified as weak wooded include soft or brittle wood, poor branch attachment, and susceptibility to environmental stressors like wind or heavy snow. Such trees are often more prone to damage during storms or other weather-related events due to their compromised structural integrity.

The other options, while they may describe various characteristics of trees, do not accurately capture the concept of a weak wooded tree. For instance, a tree with multiple trunks may not necessarily be weak wooded; it could be structurally sound depending on how the trunks are supported. Dense foliage relates to a tree's leaf structure and does not indicate wood strength or weakness. Similarly, roots growing in poor soil can affect overall health, but this does not directly relate to wood strength unless the soil conditions severely influence the tree's growth and stability.
