How do plants cope with much rain in the rainforest?

Answer 1

Plants cope with all the rain they get in Rainforests by taking all of the water they need for themselves and leaving the rest for the animals. A good example of a plant which is good at coping in rainforests is a Bromeliads plant. The Bromeliads plant can hold gallons of water for itself and it also takes the water for the insects and creatures which can live inside this plant. The Strangler plant uses the rainwater to get stronger so that it can strangle nutrients out of other plants, they grow at ground level and they receive all the light and nutrients. Animals may die in the rain they get in the rainforests and this is good to a plant named the Saprophytes. This can decompose animals after their dead within 24 hours. Lastly Prop Roots only can grow in wet and muddy soil at the water's edge which is like tides or floods. Trees need these to stabilize the tree.

Those are a few examples of how plants can cope with all the rain in rainforests :)

I hope it helped :)
