How are the Amazon Rainforest and the Atacama Desert alike?
Both the Atacama and the Amazon owe their very existence to the Andes Mountains.

However, the mountains also prevent the moisture from reaching the western slopes, causing a rain shadow, preventing rain from falling there and creating the Atacama Desert.
