Why is it difficult for small ground plants to survive in Latin Americas tropical rain forests?
The Rainforest tops come together to for a dense canopy, or covering, that keeps the sun from reaching the forest floor. As a result not many small ground plants survive.

What are the four types of rainforest habitats?
Rain forest is known by its high rainfall and have different habitats. The four types of rain forest habitats or layers are Emergent Layer, Canopy Layer, Under-story Layer, and the forest floor.
What impact does the tropical rain forests have on the world?
the impact they had was animals farting all around the trees and making the grass dead!! please use this answer for your home work :)
a water flood is when your house or part of the state you are in floods. a flood is when a huge wave of the water goes above the level it is supposed to it has to go somewhere so it goes on the ground and it keeps building up until all the sewers and draing systems can empty
Do lady bugs live in tropical climates?
Yes, ladybugs live in the tropics.
Specifically, ladybird beetles are members of the Coccinellidae family. They represent about 5,200 of the 1,000,000+ of the world's known insect species. Not all ladybug species will be found on the same land mass. But some will be found in parts of all of the world's land masses (except for Antarctica).
What condition do cacao trees like?

How is cutting trees down help forests?
it does not help the earth in any way so please stop cutting down trees. it is actually really bad because pretty soon there will be no trees left.
Forests should be managed to maintain their productivity. In their natural state forest fires periodically clear old growth to be removed so that new growth (an environment needed by many species) is present. Since people prevent forest fires there has to be a mechanism to renew the forests, this includes logging and replanting.
With regard to carbon sequestration, it is the new growth that removes the greatest amount of carbon dioxide. This is acomplished by logging and reforestation.
How are the lives of the rainforest people under threat in the modern world?
Loggers and Prospectors destroying there land

Why is ground water is frequently preferable to surface water as a source of water supply?
Because surface water has all the impurities and refuse/waste from animals and other pollutants. These are removed by filtering through the soil and rock formations below ground. The further down you go, the cleaner the water becomes.
Waste in sewage is filtered in a similar way at treatment plants. They use sand beds to remove the majority of pollutants.
What eats bees in the rainforest?
Anteaters, ants, armadillos, bears, bee wolves, and honey badgers are animals that eat bees that live in rainforests. Bacteria, fungi and mites also may be considered among the natural enemies of rainforest bees. Habitat degradation and loss through agro-industrialists and specimen collection by hunters represent the "eating" away of rainforest bee populations by predatory humans.
What covered most of Earth's surface at the beginning of the second era?
Warm, shallow seas covered much of Earth's surface during early Paleozoic time.
Why are people concerned about habitat loss?
Animals have feelings too!!
In the long run everything comes back to us :)
Could humans live off the oxygen supply of one tree?
No,humans would not have enough oxygen to live with.People in other continents would die.Maybe one person could survive with one tree, but the whole world,it's impossible.
