Why drip tip leaves is in tropical rainforest?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Because the rainfall is very often and very heavy, and the water needs to get to the forest floor there are drip tip leaves. They're shaped to a point for easy waterflow and often waxy/slippery to get rid of the water quickly. The tree would also not be able to photosynthesize (produce it's food via the leaves and sun) if the leaves were covered in water.

What do you call a forest of tall trees where there is a lot of rain but is not cold or hot?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Temperate rain forest is the name given to a forest that contains a considerable number of tall trees in an area that is very rainy and neither very cold or very hot.

The Pacific Northwest United States is such an area. The Olympic National Park, which is situated in the northwest corner of the state of Washington is a temperate rain forest.

Rainfall there exceeds twelve feet per year. Temperature seldom drops below freezing or rises above 80° F.

Temperate rain forests, unlike tropical rain forests do not have as large of a variety of tree species. Also tropical rain forest tend to very hot.

How many flowers are in the rainforest?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you take flowers to mean angiosperms (the group name for all flowering plants) then surprisingly few are found in the rainforest. This is primarily due to the lack of sunlight that is capable of penetrating through the thick upper canopy (only around 2% reaches the forest floor).

Most plants produce a 'flower' of some sort - an organ which disperses/collects gametes of the opposite sex. The majority of rainforest plants are insect pollinated as there is little wind flow. A surprisingly number are pollinated by mammals (eg bats) as well as the more common insect pollination.
