The fern should be found on the west side of the mountain ranges at higher elevations because the prevailing winds are from the west off the Pacific Ocean so bring moisture in the clouds and as the clouds rise up over the westernmost mountains they cool off and precipitate so in the warm seasons rain would be concentrated in this area and higher up would be cooler.
Rainforest cover only 2 % of the total surface area of the Earth but in spite of that about 50 % of plants and animals that live on the Earth live there.
By definition rainforests are forests that recieve high amounts of rainfall so you can actually find rainforests in Alaska for example (other examples: Canada, Asia, Africa, Latin and South-America)
About 1/4 of natural medicines are found in rainforests. 70 % or more of the plants that are used to treat cancer are found only in tropical rainforest on the planet.
Trees in tropical rainforests are so dense that it takes approximately 10 min for the rainfall to reach the ground from canopy.
Answer:
Each of the different colors has its own wavelength, which reflects and refracts at its own angle, different from all the other colors. When light passes through a prism (a triangular piece of glass), it is reflected and refracted into a continuous band of colors called a spectrum.
Explanation:
The protein involved in elongation of Bacillus Antrasis to form its typical shape is called FtsZ.
FtsZ is a GTpase that polymerises in nucleotide dependent manner head to tail to form a single stranded filaments that assemble into a contractible ring.
