The Tropical  Rain Forest may only cover 7% of the earths surface but it contains around half of all living plants and animals in the world. The Tropical Rain Forest has three layers: The canopy, understory, and the forest floor. The canopy receives most of the sun light so little to no sunlight reach the forest floor. The Tropical Rain Forest never gets cold.]]> 2019-09-17 14:32:09 UTC https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/385323312 austinrudd https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/385337530 The Tropical Rain Forest is hot, wet, and humid year round with the temperatures ranging from 70 degrees to 85 degrees Fahrenheit. The Temperature hardly ever goes above 90 degrees Fahrenheit and Below 69 degrees Fahrenheit. The Tropical Rain Forest gets about 80-400 inches of rain a year.]]> 2019-09-17 14:46:37 UTC https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/385337530 austinrudd https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/385347020 The Tropical Rain Forest is found between the latitudes of 23.5 N and 23.5 S. The Altitudes of the Tropical Rain Forest are 5,000 ft - 3,000 ft in mountainous regions and  0 m  - 1,000 m in non mountainous regions. Since this biome is closer to the equator it is warmer and it receives more rain. Since the Tropical Rain Forest's Altitude is closer to the seas this means the biome is hotter and causes more evaporation. This will lead to more rain.]]> 2019-09-17 14:57:34 UTC https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/385347020 austinrudd https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/385972759 The Tropical Rain Forest  have varying Topography. This biome can be flat lowland plains or highland valleys with streams. Since this biome is really close to the equator it receives a lot of direct sunlight. Since the insolation is high and it is so close to the equator this causes the rain forest to be hot all year round because it receives direct sunlight all year round.]]> 2019-09-18 14:28:19 UTC https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/385972759 austinrudd https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/385983320 The Tropical Rain Forest has a lot of plant and animals. Some animals include frogs and monkeys. The most popular frog is the poison dart frog that is brightly colored and have a poison that is lethal to humans. The monkeys of this biome like to live in the trees and eat small plants and animals . Some plants include palms and rubber trees. There are many palms but some are actually vines that grow on trees to get sunlight and rubber trees are commonly known for there milky colored latex.]]> 2019-09-18 14:40:53 UTC https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/385983320 austinrudd https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/386004535 One of the major threats currently is deforestation because if you want lumber or land to build something you have to cut down trees. Another major threat is mining in the Tropical Rain Forest because the governments are cutting large areas of trees down for the purpose of mining there.]]> 2019-09-18 15:07:04 UTC https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/386004535 austinrudd https://padlet.com/austinrudd/5pjb7lx0t9gm/wish/386013605 The Average Temperature is 26 degrees Fahrenheit.
