What are facts about rainforests?

Fact # 1Contrary to popular belief, the rain forest is NOT the "lungs of the planet". This myth comes from the notion that the rain forest is a net carbon sink, i.e., that it removes more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than it emits into the atmosphere, thus making the air more oxygen-rich for human breathing, as well as reducing greenhouse gas levels, and thus reducing the potential for global warming. The problem is, the rain forest is not a net carbon sink. It is, at best, carbon neutral. Yes, the living trees and plants in a rain forest consume a great deal of carbon dioxide, breaking it up into carbon and oxygen and storing the carbon in its own tissue as cellulose and other organic compounds. But, when those trees die, they rot. And when they rot, that carbon is set free, and quickly re-combines with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. If there was any soil to speak of in the rain forest, some small part of that carbon could be stored in the ground. But the soil is very thin there, so very, very little gets stored in the ground. It's all stored in the plant tissue, and it is all released when the plant dies and rots. Over time, the rain forest produces just as much carbon dioxide as it consumes. Therefore, the rain forest is not helping the global warming "problem" at all, at best it is neutral and the natural decaying process produces vast ammounts of methane.

About 2000 trees in the rain forest are cut down every minute.

They are mostly in humid tropical regions with dense evergreen forest and many species of trees,plants,insects,lizards,birds and animals with over 300 cm of rainfall.this isno good thing to do

the trees are tall, it rains there, it's a forrest, there are many different animals, some medecines are found in the rain forest

rainforests have trees and vines and animals.

it rains a average of 50-260 in. a year.

Over 200 species live there,their cool if you look into it + more

Well, coincidentally-

  1. theres only 3 in the world
  2. they are fun to be in
  3. and this is the 3rd fact

Over 200 species live in the rain forest, including new bacteria. Panthers, tree frogs, and

about more than 3 dozen other animals live in the tropical rainforest. Not only do animals live

there, but plants live there, too! Plants like aloe, ferns, and even fly traps live in the tropical

rainforest, too! Only 2% of the world's surface is covered by the tropical rainforest biomes. And

in the 2%, 50% of the Earth animals species lives in the tropical. And out of that more than 30%

of those animals live in the Amazon!

A tropical rainforest, the ecosystem usually found around the equator

  • Shrouded in a thick mist, you can find the only tree that grows the rare Amazonian Ipapa Berry. This fruit is yellow and orange in colour and can grow up to 22cm long! It has a soft consistency, and is very sour.
  • The Delta Lizard is an indigenous species of some rainforests. It resembles a chameleon though it has a very short tail, and bright red eyes which gives it the impression of an evil glare.
  • If you plan on staying in a rainforest for an extended period of time you may be surprised to know that over-exposure to the climate can lead to diseases and deformations including but not limited to:
    • Bloodfire: A disease in which blood grows warmer at an alarming rate causing the body to shut down. Very rare.
    • Mycetic Spores: Caused by tiny Tyranid organisms that infect and break down in skin infecting the victim from the inside. Rare.
    • Kepral's Syndrome: Named after a well-known explorer from the 1830's, Kenneth Kepral was the first known case of this illness. It is another small parasitic organism that slowly devours the area of the brain that controls sanity. Uncommon.

only 6% of the world is Rainforest

  • Giant bamboo plants can grow up to 9 inches a day
  • 80% of the flowers in the Australian rainforest are not found anywhere else in the world
  • 1 out of 4 ingredients in our medicines come from rainforest plants
  • the rainforest of central Africa is home to more than 8,000 species of plants
  • about 2,000 tree of the rainforest are being cut down per minute

Why is it warmer at the top of the room then the bottom?

Because warm air is lighter then cold air.

So warm air will raise (to the top of the room) and cold air will stay down. When the warm air is cooling down it lowers and when cold air is heated/heating up it raise.
