A tree structure, tree diagram, or tree model is a way of representing the hierarchical nature of a structure in a graphical form. It is named a "tree structure" because the classic representation resembles a tree , although the chart is generally upside down compared to a biological tree, with the "stem" at the top and the "leaves" at the bottom.
It is a small to medium-sized tree growing to 10–12 metres (33–39 ft) tall, deciduous in the dry season. The leaves are 10–20 centimetres (3.9–7.9 in) obcordate shaped, long and broad, rounded, and bilobed at the base and apex

It uses a basic tree structure to organize information, and allows the user to define different types of nodes and leaves ... displaying the contents as an outline ...
Young tree in natural habitat American chestnut male (pollen) catkins. Castanea dentata is a rapidly-growing, large, deciduous hardwood eudicot tree. [20] A singular specimen manifest in Maine has attained a height of 115 feet (35 m) [21] Pre-blight sources give a maximum height of 100 feet (30 m), and a maximum circumference of 13 feet (4.0 m). [22]
It can grow into a massive tree with many examples hundreds of years old. Around ten trees are known from the past and present with a diameter of 4 m (13 ft) or more with several specimens around 100 m 3 (3,500 cu ft) in total volume. [5] Like other plane trees, its leaves are borne alternately on the stem, deeply lobed, and palmate or maple ...
