Which would be an adaptation in very cold place but not in a rain forest?
fur that blends in with snow
Why is the rainforests so luxuriant?
because there are specific climatic inputs and they influence the soil and vegetation growth.The climatic inputs include the sunlight,temperature and rainfall,they are correlated and influense each other.
Sunlight gives a strong insolation in tropical is an important factor to the remaining factors.Tropical rainforest locates between10 ¢XN to 10¢XS.Because the angle of insolation is high throughout the whole year ,so it can receive a strong and intense insolation in the whole year .So the temperature of tropical rainforest is constantly high and there is no extreme climate. They can receive enough sunlight, have photosynthesis to get a high vegetation productivity.
Temperature influenced by sunlight determines the growth of plants.When there is extreme weather condition,that means the annual range and daily range of temperature is very high,the growing season becomes short,vegetation easily wilts.But in tropical rainforests,the constant sunlight gives a moderate climate.This environment favours vegetation growth in the whole year and there is lack of seasonality.
The amount of precipitation also influence the vegetation growth.In the tropics,because of the intense heat brought by the sunlight,hot air rises rapidly and cool down.Relative humidity rises and air condenses to form rain clouds,so there are convection rains regularly and the annual rainfall is above 2500mm.As a result,there is enough moisture to support plants growth and favours photosynthesis.The vegetation productivity becomes high.
Why is a thermos flask good at keeping drinks cold as well as hot?
Because it has good insulation so it prevents boss loss and gain of heat from the surrounding ----
Well that's true, but more interestingly, it has a glass chamber inside which is smaller than the outer casing. The air between the glass chamber and the outer casing has had almost all of the air removed, and is therefore a vacuum.
This makes the heat unable to escape between the inner chamber and the outer casing, keeping the liquid hot. It also stops heat from outside being able to get into the liquid stored in the glass chamber, therefore keeping it cold.
Most of the heat from the flask is lost from the lid, since the liquid has to come out of somewhere.
Does your period stop while your in water?
No. Your period can't actually STOP fully when you are in water... however, if you are swimming, because you are lying horizontally in the water, the blood will not pour out, i go swim training 6hrs a week, so i just wear a tampon just in case!
The water pressure helps hold the menstrual fluid inside your body, even though the lining is still shedding. Also, since most people are in a horizontal position when swimming, gravity isn't pulling the fluid downwards. However, as soon as you get out of the water, the menstrual fluid will again begin to exit the vagina, and you will have a problem. Therefore, it is best to wear a tampon or a menstrual cup when swimming.
No. It helps to wear a tampon if you're swimming and the water will just dilute the blood. It doesn't affect the blood flow at all.
What foods provide animal protein?
I will presume by "good" source you mean high in available protein while being low in saturated fats and cholesterol. The animal protein with the highest bioavailability (meaning, you digest and absorb the most nutrients) is eggs. Second would probably be fish, particularly coldwater fish such as salmon and cod. After this would be lean pork and lean beef, although they may be interchanged with lean chicken and turkey. Milk and other dairy products are good sources of protein, but they also tend to have relatively high amounts of saturated fats.
How many rainforests are left in this world?
Currently, only less than 6% of the Earth's surface is rainforest.
For more information, please see the Related Links.
There is the Amazonian one in Central and South America, One in Africa, One in India, and one in Australia.
Rainforests once covered 14% of the earth's land surface; now they cover a mere 6% and experts estimate that the last remaining rainforests could be consumed in less than 40 years.
What services does the a amazon rainforest provide us with?
The rain forest can provide us with services such as research. This research can be used in medicine or biodiversity -a variety of life in the same ecosystem. We also get goods from the rain forest which includes things like food, medicines and raw materials like wood or fuels.
Is there a rainforest in mali?
Mali does contain rainforest. According to estimates Mali contains roughly twelve and a half a million hectares of forest (that is 50,000 square miles). Current estimates suggest it is loosing about 0.56% of its forest cover a year- between 1990 and 2010 it lost 11.2% of its cover.
Roughly speaking 50,000 is 10% of the area of mali
Amazons were (possibly mythical) warrior women, who are described in the Iliad as "antianeirai", meaning: those who go to war like men. They were also described by Herodotus as "androktones", killers of males. They were said to worship Artemis the virgin goddess of the hunt, and Ares the god of war. As to how they multiplied, some say the Amazons met with men from nearby societies, and chose suitable partners would take into the darkness of the forest and couple with. If they gave birth to a male, they were said to kill, blind or cripple the infant. If they kept them alive they would then use them when they grew into young men (if they were suitable) as a supply of male seed. They also took men prisoner in battle, after choosing the most handsome they then used them for their sexual pleasure, and would either kill them or use them as slaves once their usefulness had been expended.

What is El Yunque National Rain forest located in?
El Yunque National Forest is located on the east central portion of Puerto Rico. The center of the park is located about 50 km (31 Miles) east of Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport, or about 60 km (37 Miles) east of the cruise ship docks in Old San Juan.
Depending on the time of day travel time can nearly double from nominally an hour to at worst 2 hours. It is a good idea to generally allow an hour and a half travel time from Old San Juan to the center of El Yunque National Forest.
The center of the U.S. National Rain Forest is 30 km (18 miles) west of Fajardo.
El Yunque is directly south of Luquillo Beach. This white sand lagoon-type beach is a must see if you take the trip out to that part of the island.
What small country has lost most of its rain forest?
