1. Note three characteristics of shrubs that distinguish them from trees and herbs. Why is a grape vine sometimes regarded as a shrub?

These are the differences between trees and shrubs:

1. Shrubs do not grow as tall as trees, generally not reaching higher than 4.5 meters.
2. A shrub's trunk has a circumference of less than 24 cm at 1.4 meters above the ground.
3. Shrubs often have multiple trunks, while trees generally have a single, central trunk.
