Rainforests

I asked Siri "Alexa" and she said "That's like comparing apples and.. not apples." And that's why i'm here to find out if Siri is right which she is not cuz the amazon rainforest has apple trees. I am taking this way too seriusly.

Plants in tropical rainforests exhibit several unique traits to adapt to their environment. Many have large, broad leaves to capture sunlight in the dense canopy and facilitate photosynthesis. Others possess shallow root systems to quickly absorb nutrients in the thin layer of fertile soil. Additionally, some plants develop climbing abilities or epiphytic lifestyles, allowing them to reach light and moisture in the competitive rainforest ecosystem.

"Once the rain forests die it is not easy to get them back so recycle ever chance you have."

The rainforest covers 6% of our earth and has over 3o million plants and animals in them!

Heaps and heaps just wait until you get there and you will see

you look for a healthy plant and dig under it

They're important - to the local flora and fauna, and because they replenish oxygen in the atmosphere. They're disappearing - because of human greed for 'virgin' wood used to make furniture !

The advantages are that there would be plenty of fresh water and their would be very clean fresh air and oxygen.

The people who live in the amazon rainforest could make a living by being a cattle farmer or driving trucks full of logs and cut down trees, you could cut down trees

hope you use my answer

Well, to catch an animal in the rainforest they might use a trap, like a cage. If the animal is too big, then they might use a dart to put it to sleep so they can run tests on that animal. But most scientists will run a test on the animal, and then put it back.

In which climate would leaching be more common in, tropical or desert? Explain.

you can get rubber from trees because you collect the sap and make rubber!

I'm not sure but apparently every month a chunk of the amazon as big as Wales is cut down by local people!

Soil in the tropical rainforest's is very nutrient poor. The topsoil is only one to two inches (2.5 to 5 centimeters) deep. The only reason plant life is so lush is because the plants store the nutrients in themselves rather than getting them from the soil. When plants decay, other growing plants tap the nutrients from the dead matter and reuse nutrients left over from that plant. This is why farmers can only use the rainforest's soil for one or two years after they clear cut it, before all nutrients are stripped from the soil. The reason the soil so infertile is because it is more than 100 million years old, and has taken a beating from the elements. After time, rain washes minerals out of the soil, leaving it more acidic and nutrient poor. Soil exposed to the heat and condensed sunlight turns it into red clay. Other soils just cannot deal with minerals, and turn it into compounds useless to plants. There are some fertile patches of soil in the rainforest's, but they are scattered throughout the thick vegetation.
