Tropical rainforest A forest of tall trees found in a region of yearround warmth Equator Average precipitation rainfall 1250mm 6600mm Home to greatest variety of living things in the world Huge biodiversity. Every tropical rainforest consists of . four. major . strata. , or layers. Though these layers are related, each layer is like its own distinct world.. 1. 2. 3. 4. Hi! I am Mango the Monkey and I am here to tell you all about the rainforest canopy. First, lets learn about the other layers of the rainforest!. By: Michael Anaya & . Emanoel. . Lorenzzutti. Forest of tall trees that is hot all year around and gets about 50 to 260 in. of rainfall a year. . Brazil Nut Tree. Famous for reaching heights of over 160 feet, the Brazil nut tree towers above other trees in the Amazon rainforest. During January and February, its fruit -- which is the size of a baseball and can weigh up to 5 pounds -- ripens and falls to the ground, reaching speeds of up to 50 mph on its descent. Inside the fruits’ hard, woody exterior are anywhere from 10 to 21 nuts arranged in a pattern similar to segments of an orange. The outer casing of the fruit is so hard that only one known animal -- the agoutis, a large rodent with sharp, chisel-like teeth -- can crack it open. In just one year, a Brazil nut tree can produce some 250 pounds of nuts.. By: Meredith Brown, Deandra Thomas, Jenna Banwell, and Samantha Maxson. Strangler fig. Canopy. Bromeliad.

Scientists have divided our world into different biomes, such as tundra, grasslands, deserts, rainforests, deciduous forests, and marine environments. A biome is a large geographical region with plants and animals that are able to live in that location with its particular climate because they have adapted in different ways to the amounts of water, heat, and soil in that area..

One of the widely accepted estimates is that they covered 25 million square kilometers, or 16% of the land surface of the earth. Today, they cover around ten million kilometers.

Welcome!. Come take a tour of the tundra biome with Atzhari and Isabella! hope you enjoy (': please enjoy the beauty of it all. . Tundra Biome Map . Tundra Climate. The tundra biome is an ecosystem situated near the North Pole in the Arctic Circle. It is by far the coldest of all biomes. The winters are extremely cold with temperatures typically below -34° C. The summers last only about two months and the temperatures are still very cold ranging from 3° to 12° C. This biome still sustains life although it encounters these extreme temperatures. Some animals, insects, and even plants thrive there. Yearly precipitation, including melting snow, is 150 to 250 mm. The arctic tundra biome ranges from 300 to 11,079 feet in elevation..
