Firstly, it has broad leaves which allows it to be able to absorb maximum amount of sunlight for photosynthesis. Secondly, it has drip tips to allow it to drain off excess water so as to prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi on the leaves. Thirdly, it has waxy leaves to allow it to be able to reduce the loss of water vapour to the environment due to the process of transpiration. It also has buttress roots that allow it to reach up for maximum sunlight and also to allow it to be able to absorb mineral salts and nutrients from the soil owing to its shallow underground roots. ]]> 2021-09-29 04:45:00 UTC https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776885067 https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776885385 The plants in the tropical rainforest has broad leaves to trap as much sunlight as possible.

They also have shallow roots to absorb the nutrients of the dead leaves that fall to the soil faster. The trees also have drip tip leaves, allowing water falling onto the leaves of a plant to flow down to reach the soil faster. The trees also have broad leaves to absorb more sunlight so it can photosynthesise more. The trees also have waxy leaves to reduce the loss of water vapour through transpiration.]]> 2021-09-29 04:45:20 UTC https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776885721 https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776886124 Plants in Tropical Rainforests has leaves which are broad to take in maximum sunlight, waxy leaves to reduce the amount of water in the leaves lost as water vapour and Drip Tip leaves so that the water will quickly drip down from the leaves to prevent growth of bacteria and also to not damage the leaf by allowing the water droplet to drip down quickly.

Plants in Tropical Rainforests also have Buttrees roots which stabilises trees so that they would not collapse easily and also for it to grow to a great height to absorb the most amount of sunlight for photosynthesis to survive and they are also shallow to absorb most nutrients.

They also have waxy leaves which have glossy surfaces and reduce the rate of evaporation of water on the leaves.They have drip tips that allow the rainwater to flow off and not stay on the leaves to prevent the growth of bacterial and fungus.Lastly, they have buttress roots that prevent the tree from toppling over and support the plants.The roots also allow the plant to grow to great heights.]]> 2021-09-29 04:45:34 UTC https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776886238 https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776886891 The plants in the tropical rainforest have Buttress roots to help them reach to great heights to absorb as much sunlight as possible to make food. It also keeps them upright and prevents them from toppling over. The roots usually grow up to 5 metres tall. They also have shallow roots to absorb the nutrients on the top most layer of the soil where the dead leaves fall and decompose on the soil. The plants have broad leaves which has a larger surface area to absorb more sunlight to make food. They have waxy leaves that reduces the amount of water lost during transpiration from the atmosphere due to the high temperature and heat. They also have drip tips which allows water to flow of their leaves easily which is important due to the frequent heavy rainfall and helps them to dry faster so that bacteria and fungi do not grow on the leaves.]]> 2021-09-29 04:45:54 UTC https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776886891 https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776887477 Tropical rainforests have four features which allows them to adapt to their environment. The features are broad leaves, drip tips leaves, waxy coating and buttress roots. The broad leaves allow the plant to absorb as much sunlight to photosynthesize and make food for the plant. The drip tip leaves allow precipitation to drip of the leaves easily to ensure the growth of fungi and bacteria on the leaves due to the high precipitation in the tropical rainforests. The waxy coating on leaves reduces the amount of water vapour being evaporated during the process of transpiration. The buttress roots not only support the tree and grow great lengths to help the tree absorb as much sunlight as possible, the buttress roots are also shallow roots to help the plant absorb as much nutrients and minerals as possible as they are found above the soil. ]]> 2021-09-29 04:46:13 UTC https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776887477 https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776887666 There are 4 special features of a Tropical Rainforest. They are drip-tip leaves, butress roots, broad leaves and waxy leaves. Due to the tropical weather where there is an abundant of rainfall, so rain will fall often, drip-tip leaves and waxy leaves allows the water which fell onto the leaves to flow off the leaf easily. This way, fungus or bacteria gowth can be prevented effectively. Butress roots allows the Tropical rainforest plants to be able to receive enough water and able to prevent the plant from toppling over easily against strong wind. Lastly, the broad leaves of Tropical Rainforests allows the plants to be able to trap more sunlight due to the increased amount of chloroplast in the leaf. Traping more sunlight allows photosynthesis to be carried out efficiently. The plants would be able to make more food and give out more oxygen during the photosynthesis. ]]> 2021-09-29 04:46:19 UTC https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776887666 https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776887991 The tropical rainforests has drip tips to help the rainwater that accumulates on the leaves to flow off easily. Additionally, it also has waxy leaves to aid the drip tips in helping the water to flow off the leaves smoothly, not allowing the growth of bacteria to take place. Broad leaves help the plants to trap light and make food for the plant to grow and transpirate faster. Lastly, the buttress roots helps the trees in the tropical rainforest to take in nutrients from the topmost layer of the soil in the undergrowth layer. Since the roots of the trees that reach beneath the soil is very shallow and short, the source of nuturients is from the decomposing leaves and dead matter from the top layer of the soil. Not only that, it also prevents the plants from toppling over.]]> 2021-09-29 04:46:30 UTC https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776887991 idenlauwenfeng21 https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776888580 -the trees in the tropical rainforest are tall to reach for sunlight more. they also have buttress roots anchor them to the groundwhenever there is a storm, preventing them from being uprooted and causing them to die in the end. the tropical rainforests also have high rainfall, allowing the plants to absorb more water and photosynthesise faster, allowing them to grow better. the animals also have ample water to drink. the tropical rainforests also have no change in climate and their temperatures remain the same, so animals and plants living in there do not need to adapt to the climate so much. furthermore, leaves of plants in the tropical rainforests have waxy surfaces and drip tips to allow water to flow off of them easily. therefore, fungi and bacteria would not grow on the leaves and cause the leaves to die.]]> 2021-09-29 04:46:47 UTC https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776888580 https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776888658 Firstly, the tropical rain forest has butress roots which supports the trees and prevents it from toppling over. Secondly, the tropical rainforest has waxy leaves. This prevents the loss of too much water vapour through the leaves. Thirdly, the tropical rainforest has drip tips. This enables water to flow off the leaves easily and quickly, which in turn prevents mould and bacteria to grow on the leaves. Lastly, they have broad leaves.

This enables the plant to absorb as much sunlight as possible in order to make food for its own survival and growth. The leaves are waxy too. This helps the plant to reduce the amount of water lost through transpiration. The leaves are also drip tipped, allowing water on the leave to flow off. This prevents the growth of fungi and bacteria when water is accumulated on the leaf surface. The plants have buttress roots, which allows them to reach greater heights without toppling. The roots of plants are also wide spreading. As the tropical rainforest are in a tropical climate which has a high rainfall, the roots are wide spreading. This allows the plant to absorb as much water and nutrients as possible before they are washed away by the rain. ]]> 2021-09-29 04:49:02 UTC https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776892987 https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776893341 The tropical rainforest plants have broad leaves, drip tip leaves, waxy leaves, buttress roots and shallow roots. Broad leaves enable it to take in more light for photosynthesis as it has a larger surface area. drip tip leaves which allow rainwater to flow off easily so as to not allow bacteria or fungi to grow on the leaves. waxy leaves which reduces the amount of water lost as water vapour to the tropical atmosphere due to the heat. There are also buttress roots which secure the plant to the ground to prevent uprooting during heavy rain, and the roots also help the plant grow to greater heights to reach for as much sunlight as possible for photosynthesis. Shallow underground roots also allow the trees to absorb nutrients from the soil as fast as possible.

Trees have buttress roots that hold them upright and anchor the trees preventing them from toppling. It gives the trees support and allows them to grow as tall as they want to receive abundance of sunlight and water. Trees and plants have broad leaves that have more surface area in order to absorb as much sunlight as possible. They also have waxy leaves that prevent them from losing water vapour.

Broad leaves, buttress roots, drip tips and waxy leaves. The leaves in the tropical rainforest has broad leaves which help to increase the surface area of leaves which enables more photosynthesis to take place. The trees have buttress roots, which help the trees to receive enough water and prevent the plant from toppling over. The leaves also have drip tips to help rainwater drip off the leaf to prevent bacterial growth.

The emergent layer consists of trees of height above 30 meters. They can grow up to 70 meters in height. These trees grow as high as possible to receive as much sunlight as possible. Below the emergent is the canopy layer. The height of the trees in the canopy layer can range from 20-30 meters. In the canopy layer, the crowns of the trees interlock to maximise the amount of sunlight received. The plants in the undergrowth layer are 0-20 meters in height. In the undergrowth layer, there is very little sunlight as most of the sunlight is blocked by the crowns of the trees in the canopy layer. Whenever there is a fallen tree in the canopy layer, the plants in the undergrowth will take advantage of it and grow there. The plants in the tropical rainforest are also evergreen. This means that they do not have a specific time of the year when all their leaves fall off. This is because they grow in the tropical climate which has a high average temperature at around 27 degree Celsius and hight average rain fall which is above 2000mm. The tropical rainforest is dense and luxuriant because there is an abundance of food sources and water all year round, making it a suitable location for a wide variety of animals. It also has no dry seasons or cold climate.]]> 2021-09-29 04:53:01 UTC https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776900758 https://padlet.com/chuachorloon1/xowur3lodescgssh/wish/1776903013 The leaves of the tropical rainforest have waxy leaves which give them a glossy appearance and prevent too much lost of water vapour.
