Well they have completely different adaptations. Like the desert animals probably have tools on their body such as claws to make shelter from the weather and can probably live longer than a rain forest animal would without food or water like a camel. I hope that helped! :)

∙ 15y agobecause there are so many different types of vegetation , more than in any other ecosystem in the world. insects and other herbivores eat the plants and then the predators e.g jaguar eat the herbivores. Also there are billions of of trees and some of them produce fruit. the fruit is then eaten by animals like mokeys and gibbons.

∙ 11y agobecause the rainforest is a place with endless amount of plant for animals to eat which means they thrive and then with more plant eating animals that means the meat eating animals like the jaguar have a bountifulfood source of food.

∙ 11y agoThere is more biodiversity in the rain forest ecosystem than in a desert ecosystem ,because of the amount of plentiful resources that occur naturally in the rain forest. This allows for the rapid growth of ecosystems and allows them to thrive.

The food plants make is what?
Photosynthesis
Who needs more food plants or animals?
Plants make more of their own food but animals need more food. This is because the metabolic rate is higher in animals.
Why can plants survive without animals but animals not with plants?
Plants CAN survive without the help of animals. Animals play a part in a plant's life by either two ways: seed reproductive transport (1), or/and fertilizer(2). For transportation, animals, such as birds, can help by eating a berry off of a berry plant. When they travel away from the area and produce waste from the foods, the seed droppings are in the waste material, which lands onto soil and soon another berry plant will grow. The other ways is a little more complex; plants, for example, grass, can get their soil more nutrients by having other animals such as cows to produce more waste. This manure contains rich ingredients to help the grass grow better. Overall, plants CAN survive without the help of animals. But if they DO get help, such as transport or soil nutrients, they have more chance of living longer.
What plants and animals live during droughts?
Rabbits,Hares and more animals survive in droughts , but most animals don`t survive.
Why is it better for humans to obtain their energy from plants rather than animals?
Animals can produce the things we need and plants help us stay healthy. Like predators, we eat meat from animals. Most people are omnivorous, so that's why we get our food from plants and animals. -lu

the rainforests have been cut down and burnt....DEFORESTATION over the years this has happened more and more leading to animals dying out and many other species of plants etc hope that helped a little!!:)
What animals live in the same habitat as the green tree python?
The Green Tree Python (Morelia virdis) lives in rainforests and more than half of the world's plants and animals are found there. Therefore animals like primates, felids, chameleons and plants like ferns, orchids and carnivorous plants live there.

Why are deserts sandy?
Not all deserts are sandy, though many are.Sand is made primarily of silicon and oxygen.If you look at the elemental composition of the Earth's crust, guess what the top two elements are? Did you guess silicon and oxygen? Ding ding ding! Together they make up around two-thirds of the entire crust. So: we should expect to find a lot of sand, and indeed we do.We don't notice it as much outside of deserts, because there are more plants and animals there. More plants and animals = more dead plants and animals = more decomposing organic matter = more soil, which gets mixed with the sand and makes it less obvious.To make it simple since the climate of deserts are dry, rocks are weathered to sand and it doesnt turn to mud
How do semi-desert animals live in the semi-desert?
Semi deserts are not true deserts but grasslands. They receive about twice the annual rainfall as a true desert and this provides for much more plant life and available water that helps support a greater variety of animals and plants.
