What are the 5 layers of the Amazon rainforest?

Answer 1

1. emergent 2. canopy 3. under canopy 4. shrub 5. floor Actually, scientists consider there being four layers of the rain forest * Forest floor - All trees in the rain forest start their lives here in this layer. On the damp ground, we see lots of fallen leaves and fruits, decaying trees, and fungi. They are food sources for many animals. They also help enrich the soil and provide nutrition for young plants to grow. Tapirs, termites, and scorpions are among many of the animals that we can find here. * Understory - Immediately above the forest floor is the understory. The understory consists of tree trunks, saplings, small ground plants (such as dwarf palms), and vines. Residents here include bees, snakes, frogs, and leopards. * Canopy - Moving up from the understory, we are now in the third layer, the canopy. Treetops in rain forests have leaves so densely packed that they form a "green blanket" in mid-air. We call this "green blanket" the canopy. The canopy shields sunlight from reaching the forest floor and the understory, making both layers very shady. Most of the rain forest animals live here, including several familiar faces - toucans, parrots, sloths, and monkeys. * Emergent - When we ride in a helicopter above a rain forest, we first notice the canopy extending for miles and miles. Then, we also notice some trees standing high above the canopy layer. These tall trees, towering more than 200 feet and scattered throughout the rain forest, are emergents. They make up the highest layer of the rain forest. Birds of paradise, eagles, and macaws all live here

Answer 3

The rain forest has 5 layers. They are, the river bank, the forest floor, the under story, the canopy and last there is the emergent layer. First there is the river bank but i didn't learn about this so I'm not sure then it is the forest floor which is on the bottom. The forest floor is 0 feet above the ground. Next there is the understory. The understory is 0 feet to 60 feet above the ground. Then there is the canopy. The canopy is 60 feet to 130 feet and last but not least the emergent layer is 130 to 160 feet above the ground.

the five layers of the rain forest go in this order

Emergent, Canopy, Middle Layer, Shrub Layer, and the Herb Layer. The Emergent layer is at the very top of the rain forest. The Canopy layer is right below the Emergent layer. The Middle layer is in the middle of the rain forest. The shrub layer is about 12 to 15 feet above the ground and the herb-layer is on the ground or the floor of the rainforest's.

In the Emergent layer many different kind of birds live live there. Some of those birds that live there are Scarlet Macaw, Toucans, and other variety of birds. In the Canopy layer snakes and Monkeys live there. The different kinds of snakes are the Boa Constrictor and an Emerald tree Boa. The monkeys that live there are the woolly Monkey and the Squirrel Monkey. In the Middle layer lizards such as Iguanas live there. In the shrub layer many butterflies live there. Yes, butterflies live in the rainforest. Also birds live in the shrub layer. The herb layer it is the most important because the plants and trees absorbs water from the roots. Animals such as the Ocelot which is like a cat that lives in the Herb layer.

Answer 4

The five layers of the Amazon rainforest are the emergent layer, canopy layer, understory layer, shrub layer, and forest floor. Each layer has its own unique biodiversity and plays a crucial role in the rainforest ecosystem.
