The tall trees in a tropical rain forest form a leafy roof called?

The tall trees in a tropical rainforest form a leafy roof called the canopy. It serves as a protective layer for the flora and fauna below, providing shelter from sunlight and regulating temperature and humidity levels. The canopy is a vital component of the rainforest ecosystem, supporting a diverse array of plant and animal species.


What land form may have several different climate zones from bottom to top?

A mountain or a tall peak may have several different climate zones from bottom to top due to changes in altitude. As altitude increases, the temperature typically decreases, resulting in different climate zones such as tropical at the base, temperate in the middle, and alpine at the summit.


What two forms of water are in a rain forest?

If you are referring to a tropical rain forest, you won't find ice so that leaves liquid and vapor. There are temperate rain forests where you can find solid, (snow & ice) liquid and vapor.


What animals cooperate in the tropical rainforest?

In the tropical rainforest, various animal species cooperate with each other for survival. For example, ants and plants may form symbiotic relationships where the plants provide food and shelter for the ants in exchange for protection. Additionally, some bird species work together to forage for food or to warn each other about predators.


Are tornadoes tropical?

No, tornadoes are not tropical phenomena. Tornadoes typically occur in regions with strong temperature contrasts, such as the central United States, where warm, moist air collides with cool, dry air to create the conditions for tornado formation. Tropical cyclones can sometimes produce tornadoes, but tornadoes are not a defining characteristic of tropical systems.

What is different about the places where hurricanes start and the places where tornadoes starts?

Hurricanes are tropical storm systems that form only over warn ocean water. Tornadoes are less limited. They usually form on land in temperate climates, but they can occur on water (in which case they are called waterspouts) and in tropical regions.


Tropical rainforest form in what climate?

Tropical rainforests typically form in regions with warm temperatures and high humidity, where there is abundant rainfall throughout the year. These areas are typically found near the equator where the climate is consistently warm and wet.


Do tornadoes normally form in tropical oceans?

No, tornadoes typically form over land in association with thunderstorms. Waterspouts, which are tornadoes that form over water, can occur in tropical oceans under specific conditions, but they are generally much weaker than tornadoes that form over land.

What are all the biotic factors in a temperate rainforest?

Some biotic factors in a temperate rainforest include trees, shrubs, mosses, ferns, fungi, insects, birds, mammals, and amphibians. These organisms interact with each other and their environment to form a complex and diverse ecosystem.


What is the climate and precipitation of the rainforest can you show you in a graph form?

The annual precipitation for temperate rainforests is at least 200 cm (78.74 in) and can go up to 350 cm (137.79 in). Tropical rainforests receive from 60 to 160 inches of precipitation. They vary some during the months but over a years' time, the graph shows nearly a straight line.
