Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -What might happen if you tried to plant a tree that is native to tropical rain forest in the tundra? The tree would probably die. Which term best describes the species you can find in a tropical rainforest?

Detailed explanation-2: -The tropical rainforest biome contains several species of plants such as orchids, vines and a large variety of animals. If the tropical rainforest biome received very little rain for an extended period of time, it will become dried and many plants that require lots of water for survival will die.

Detailed explanation-3: -This happens by the process of natural selection. By natural selection, the nature of the species gradually changes to become adapted to the niche. If a species becomes very well adapted to its environment, and if the environment does not change, species can exist for a very long time before they become extinct.

Detailed explanation-4: -A biome is an area classified according to the species that live in that location. Temperature range, soil type, and the amount of light and water are unique to a particular place and form the niches for specific species allowing scientists to define the biome. However, scientists disagree on how many biomes exist.
