Tropical Rainforest All Y’all will ever want to know about the rainforest
ABIOTIC FEATRURES • Temperature: 77 degrees to 82 degrees • Rainfall: 50 to 260 inches of rainfall yearly • Extremely poor soil quality • Usually on or close proximity to the equator
BIOTIC FEATURES • Layering of the forest, from the floor to the canopy • Is home to the majority of land species • Produces several food sources, and contains components for medicine
Symbiotic Relationships • (Mutualism) Capuchin monkeys lap nectar from flowers in trees as part of their varied diet. In the process they get pollen on their faces and pollinate the flowers. • (Commensalism) Arthropods lay their eggs on the dung of the sloths, which provides food for the growing larvae. • (Parasitism) A parasitic wasp preys on fig wasps, drilling a small hole into the fig and using her long ovipositor to inject an egg near a developing fig wasp larva.
