Best Answer

the rainforest is a moist dense place full of gigantic trees which cover the entire place.they prevent most of the sunlight from reaching the forest floor. those plants and trees which cannot grow so tall have adapted to the dark forest floor and branches of trees and utilize whatever little sunlight they get.evolution has allowed these plants to grow in the shade of the forest.these plants are none other than the many houseplants that exist today. the house seemed to be a perfect simulation of forests for these plants.houses are moist and get filtered sunlight making it a good place for houseplants to grow.

What is the Tropical Rainforest?

Tropical rain forests are rain forests generally found near the equator. They are common in Asia, Africa, South America, Central America, and on many of the Pacific Islands. Within the World Wildlife Fund's biome classification scheme, tropical rain forests are considered a type of tropical wet forest (or tropical moist broad leaf forest) and may also be referred to as lowland equatorial evergreen rainforest's The tropical rain forests are home to more species than all other biomes combined. The leafy tops of tall trees-extending from 50 to 80 meters above the forest floor-forms an understory. Organic matter that falls to the forest floor quickly decomposes, and the nutrients are recycled. they are commonly found in Asia Africa south America central America and many of the pacific islands.

Can you keep indoor plants healthy if you will let them stay inside your house all the time?

Yes you can but it really depends on the type of plant you are trying to keep inside the house. Most of what is kept as houseplants are tropical plants. This is because the temperatures where these plants do well is the same temperatures where most people maintain within their home. Sixty to 80 degrees are good temperature ranges for many types of plants so plants tend to do well within the normal home as long as they are supplied with the necessary water and nutrition to go along with a good temperature range.
