  3. Biome Climate Zone • The Tropical Forest has got a warm climate. • Tropical forest belong to the tropical wet climate group. The temperature rarely gets higher than 34 °C or drops below 20 °C; average humidity is between 77 and 88%.

  4. Location • Tropical Forest are located near the equator. They cover only a small part of the earth's surface - about 6%. • 57% of all tropical forest are found in South America. The Amazon jungle is the world's largest tropical forest.

Rain falls nearly every day. • Temperature: The temperature during the day is around 30ºC - 35ºC. At night the temperature decrease to between 20ºC - 25ºC.

  7. Flora More than two thirds of the world's plant species are found in the tropical forest. Competition at ground level for light and food has lead to evolution of plants that grows and grows up, this is why there aren’t so much plants living in the ground.

  8. 1 • Some example: • The orchids • 2. The carnivorous plants • 3. The buttress roots 2 3

Some of then have been for millions of years. This means that for millions of years the plants and animals in tropical rainforests have been evolving and developing to create an incredibly diverse and complex system.

  10. 1 Some examples: • The morpho butterfly • The poison-arrow frog • The spider monkey 3 2
