Trees are among the oldest living beings
on earth. There are a number of trees which are more than a millennium
old and there may be a long list of those which are not even discovered
yet. Trees do not grow like humans. Their thousand year old parts grow
with the same speed as the new ones. One of the reasons for this long
age is the transport system inside their body which helps fight the
decay and bacterial attack.
