Rainforests

No. If the forest is removed nothing can grow on the land. McDonald hamburgers tried this. They took out rainforest to plant potatoes and it failed.

There are two types of rainforests: the tropical rainforest and the temperate rainforest. The tropical rainforest is found near the equator, where the temperate rainforest is found elsewhere.

• Teach others about the importance of the environment and how they can help save rainforests.
• Restore damaged ecosystems by planting trees on land where forests have been cut down.
• Encourage people to live in a way that doesn't hurt the environment.
• Establish parks to protect rainforests and wildlife.
• Support companies that operate in ways that minimize damage to the environment. Also known as 'TREES'

It is Wet and Humid most of the year

Sloths eat mainly leaves, and browse on these most of the daytime.

Genetics is the study of heredity. It was largely started by the work of an Austrian monk called Gregor Mendel. His experiments with peas showed that there are predictable patterns in the way traits are inherited. Since then we have uncovered much of the molecular basis of inheritance.

they are difficult to establish and regenerate because the trees are so tall and it will take them ages to grow that high again

i could not give you an accurate answer due to the rate that they are being destroyed.

One way to save the Rainforest from vanishing, is to stop cutting down the trees, bushes, and brush. If we do this our people, and animals will be happy, and the Rainforest will be saved. You can also plant more flowers, trees, brush, and bushes, so when/if they do cut down the trees, there will be plants to replace them.

Because we use their wood, and their different things to make most of what we have today. although we are trying to stop most of the deforestation, or at least replant the trees. although it takes many, MANY years for it to grow back. Usually they never grow the trees back.

If we didn't have rain forests, we wouldn't have the specific kind of plants for medicine that we might need.

Each year, 14 million trees are cut down to make just 10 million paper bags.

filled with pavement and sidewalks. no plants.

most people think that the destruction of the rainforest is a bad thing because the rainforests are known as the 'LUNGS OF THE EARTH' becasue they produce more than 20% of all of the earths oxygen.

Destroying the rainforests also causes animal habitats to dissapear and therefore the animals can no longer survive. this is bad because the rainforest is home to some very rare and endangered species of bird, plant and animal. by destroying one habitat, this may cause others to die out because they can no longer feed on that plant or animal who lived there.

there are indiginous people who live in the rainforests. they have lived there for thousands of years and live 'at one' with the forest. they move every ten to fifteen years so that the forest can regrow where their settlement had been. for exnmple in the Bornean Rainforest there is a tribe called the Penan.

The Bornean Government have tried to make the indigenous people move out of the forest so that it can be deforested but they will not go because it is the land of their ancestors. some tribal people have left the forests and begun living in the modern world, although the majority refuse.

People in favour of the rainforest destruction include Logging companies who deforest the land and collect the trees to sell for building etc.

Palm Oil companies such as Cargill which provide Palm oil for food and cosmetics build their plantations in vast areas of cleeared rainforest. this causes many problems for animals and plants in the area which can no longer live or grow there.

Farmers also clear the land to allow their cattle to graze on the fertile soil but the soil is only fertile because of the plants which die and return nutrients to the soil. Because of the land only being fertile for a few years maximum, the farmers deforest more land which is fertile and keep deforesting every few years when the soil becomes useless and infertile.

Borneo and brazil are LEDC's and therefore the people need work. the work provided by the companies that deforest the land allows the people to become more developed and strengthens the national ecomony.

Overall, the rainforests are an important part of the Earth and it is very beautiful. it takes more than 5 million years to build a biodiversity as large as one of the rainforests so if they dissapear it will create a huge problem for the Human race and other species.

but, we need the products produced by the rainforests to progress. we need to let animals graze so that we can consume them ourselves and we need the logging to take place so that we have materials to build homes etc.

We need to prioritise. what is more important? An incredible biodiverse ecosystem home to thousands of rare species of animals and plants and a huge contribution to our oxygen levels or food and sufficient materials to allow us to progress and become a more economically developed world?

Alagoas Curassow (a bird that lived in Brazil now extinct in the wild)

- Tomigerus gibberulus (a terrestrial snail from Brazil) Extinct

- Red Throated Wood Rail (Bird, found throughout Peru, extinct)

- Glaucous Macaw, ( Amazonia area, extinct)

that is all i know

The rain forest effects out lives, because Without the rainforest's, we would have allot of animals that cant live no where else that will die. Another way is that if we did not have the rain forests we would not get as much water as we do now. Cause the rain in the rain forests reaches America. Sometimes it don't always reach Amercia, because we would have to suffer the problem with having no water.

It rains about 100 inches every year in the rain forest. It doesn't usually rain for the entirety of a day but there will usually be a part of every day where it rains.

Parrots in the tropical rainforest eat seeds, worms, and plants. Parrots in the tropical rainforest are omnivores. I hope that helps you.

Tropical rainforests are located near the equator. Fifty seven percent of all tropical rainforests are found in Latin America. One third of the world's tropical rainforests are in Brazil. Other tropical rainforests are located in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands (25% of the world's tropical rainforests) and West Africa (18%).
