AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Such humid air produces extreme and frequent rainfall, ranging between 200-1000 centimeters (80-400 inches) per year. Tropical rainforests are so warm and moist that they produce as much as 75 percent of their own rain through evaporation and transpiration.

Detailed explanation-2: -The tropical rainforest biome has four main characteristics: very high annual rainfall, high average temperatures, nutrient-poor soil, and high levels of biodiversity (species richness).

Detailed explanation-3: -Amazon Rainforest Characteristics All rainforests share abiotic factors, or non-living characteristics such as temperature, humidity, rainfall, and soil type.

Detailed explanation-4: -Tropical Rain Forests occur in the areas which receive heavy rainfall. They are so dense that sunlight doesn’t reach the ground. They always appear green and are called evergreen forests. Important trees found in these forests are mahogany, ebony and rosewood.

Detailed explanation-5: -the hot and wet climate provides ideal conditions for many species of plants and animals to thrive. nutrients are rapidly recycled speeding up plant growth, providing producers with food, which in turn are consumed by primary consumers. large areas of rainforest are untouched by humans, allowing nature to thrive.
