Tropical quiz


Looking at a map of the world, think about where rainforests are located. 
Why do you think all the Earth's rainforests are in these areas?
What might the climate and the temperature be like?
Why are rainforests so green?

  1. The equator is always hot because it's closer to the sun most of the time, that's why rainforests are always hot but rainy that's why most plants grow very easily. The equator is an invisible line around the middle of a planet. It is half way between the North Pole and South Pole, at 0 degrees. To be continued

    1. The time it takes for the sun to set and rise at the Equator is the fastest on Earth. The Equator's covers a distance on the Earth's surface approximately 24,901 miles long.

  2. the rainforest are green because a lot of animals live there so it needs to look like a forest or the animals wont feel like they are in there home they will feel like they don't want to live there any more.The blue morpho butterfly lives in south america in Latin.

    1. And if they were north, the animals won't be able to live in the rain-forest.
      Rain-forests help climate change which means they make the weather warmer. The rain-forest is very hot but it does rain. When it rains the weather is still hot, that's how hot it is in the rain-forest.
      The rain-forest would be white if they reflected the visible colors of sunlight combined in equal proportions. They are green because the light they reflect has the purple color removed.

  5. The reason why that Rain forest's are down south on google maps, is because in the north is where Antarctica is, and the climate temperature there is very low so it would be very hard trying to make plants grow there unless you have a poly tunnel under ground to absorb heat. Because Mexico is in South America, and it's very close to the equator and Brazil close to it as well so that makes Mexico and Brazil so hot that both countries are both and always consisting of various plants.

  7. The largest rainforests are in the Amazon River Basin (South America), the Congo River Basin (western Africa), and throughout much of southeast Asia. Smaller rainforests are located in Central America, Madagascar, Australia and nearby islands, India, and other locations in the tropics.
