Identification
A section that contains an introduction and an overview of a topic. Identification serves as the recognition of what we describe. so that readers or listeners do not misunderstand. In the introduction, it should also mention the reasons why the author chose that place to be told.
Description
In the description section contains all the general to special characteristics or traits contained in the object, person, or animal that you are describing. For example, when we tell about a place, we can start from the overall characteristics of a place such as how the scenery, buildings, weather, etc., then refer to details that specifically explain the previous general explanation.
Now let's look at the generic structure of the Descriptive Text below:

Characteristics of Descriptive Text
Using Simple Present Tense. This tense is used because in descriptive text we will explain a fact or truth contained in a thing or person. Using a lot of adjectives. Adjectives are used because in descriptive texts we will describe the properties of an object, human, or animal. We will often find a lot of "is" or connecting verbs in descriptive texts. because 'is' means 'is' which refers to the explanation of the thing, person or animal we are describing. Descriptive text only focuses on explaining one object.

A Tree
There are three main parts of a tree. They are the crown, stem, and root. The crown is at the top of the tree. Consists of leaves, branches, and twigs. The crown filters dust and other particles from the air. Leaves produce food for the tree through photosynthesis.
The trunk or trunk supports the crown and gives the tree its shape and strength. The stem consists of several layers. The layers carry water and minerals up from the roots to the leaves, and they carry sugar down from the leaves to the branches, stems and roots.
Tree roots absorb water and nutrients from the soil, store sugar and hold the tree upright in the soil. Some roots can drop more than four meters.
