are the 2 other answers:D,A?

I don't know about A.

Please check your book.

The food it creates might be for squirrels and insects. Most maples are not sugar maples, used to make syrup.

Storing water is one of the things that it does, but this may not benefit a "community", except insofar as it stabilizes soil in landslide areas, such as certain islands of Puget Sound.

It does create firewood (and therefore stores energy), a useful commodity in cold rural areas.

No, the correct answer is C) it looks nice. While maple trees do provide some environmental benefits, such as shade and habitat for wildlife, their primary contribution to a community is their aesthetic appeal. Maple trees are highly valued for their vibrant foliage, which enhances the visual appeal of neighborhoods, parks, and streetscapes. These trees are often planted in urban areas and residential communities to provide beauty and visual interest to the surroundings.
