1. Tropical Rainforest Made by Genni, Leila, Clay and Molly

2. Zoologist Tropical Rainforests!!!

3. Herbivores A herbivore is an animal that eats only trees or plants. A few examples of them in the tropical rainforest are: The Leaf Cutter Ants, Gorilla and fruit bats!

4. Carnivores A carnivore is an animal that eats only meat ( Other Animals.). A few examples of them in the tropical rainforest are: The Bushmaster Snake, Anaconda and a bush dog!

5. Omnivores A herbivore is an animal that eats both meat and plants. A few examples of them in the tropical rainforest are: Chimpanzees, margay and the pygmy marmoset!

6. Decomposer One decomposer from the tropical rainforest is cockroaches. All decomposers play their role in a biome because they put nutrients back in to soil, water, etc.

7. Abiotic and biotic Abiotic factors are not alive or an organism. Like water or air. They help animals of the tropical rainforest because they need soil for plants to grow. Also rain water is good for plants to grow. Biotic factors are any living organisms. Plants are good for animals to eat and other animals could eat each other for fuel.

8. Adaptations Some animals adapt to the tropical rainforest with camouflage. The sloth has a greenish tint that makes it invisible with the trees. Camouflage is for the use of not becoming prey or catching prey. Other animals have to adapt to all the humidity.

10. Meteorologist Tropical rainforests!!!

11. Temperature The rain forests are warm all year long The average temperature is between 70 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit.

12. Rain and humidity The daily high humidity in the average rainforest is 77-88 year long. The yearly rainfall is between 80 and 400 inches or about 200 to 1,000 centimeters of rain per year It can rain hard and up to 2 inches in a hour so it is very wet!!!

13. Light Only 2% of the sunlight that hits the upper layers of the rainforest reaches the forest floor. There is also only 12 hours of daylight. The undergrowth in a rainforest is small in many areas because of the lack of sunlight at ground level.

14. Monthly and yearly trends At first it is cool, then it changes to a warmer climate in the middle of the day and finally it becomes a rainy evening. Tropical Rainforests also have an equatorial climate. Tropical Rainforests need lots of rain to survive

15. How the trends affect us Tropical Rainforests produce lots of the earth’s oxygen. Without them we would have less oxygen. Burning rainforests can affect the world’s climate by releasing carbon dioxide. Without the rain that keeps the tropical rainforests alive there would be no rainforests and without them there would be lots of floods and droughts.

16. Geographer!!! GREEN=Rainforest BIOMES: the rainforest Clay Wilms Geographer LINKS/BIBLIOGRAPHY http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Experiments/Biome/biorainforest.php http://kids.nceas.ucsb.edu/biomes/rainforest.html TASK 1 This type of biome is located between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. Directly between these 2 places is the equator. The equator is the hottest place on earth so the rainforest is VERY hot. Task 2 GREEN=Rainforest No rainforests are higher than the Tropic of Cancer or lower than the Tropic of Capricorn. So it is almost always hot there. Task 3 There are a lot of trees. Trees as far as the eye can see.
