Sal wood is 25% to 30% heavier than teak wood and 45% to 50% harder and more durable than teak. It is resistant to white ants, termites and fungi. It is durable and water resistant.

Overall sal is a better tree, and it's resistant to termites, fungi etc. Although teak is also resistant to white ants, sal overall has better resistance. That's why the answer is Sal here.

Teak Is the correct answer because it can retain these oils even after being felled and processed.

Because of this, teak has greater weather-resistant properties.

And its Resistance against white ants.
