Which statements accurately describe tropical rain forests

Computers and Technology
1 answer:
sattari [20]3 years ago

The tropical rain forest is a forest of tall trees in a region of year-round warmth. An average of 50 to 260 inches of rain falls yearly. Rain forests belong to the tropical wet climate group.

Explanation:

  • The temperature in a rain forest rarely gets higher than 93 °F or drops below 68 °F. The average humidity is between 77 and 88%, rainfall is often more than 100 inches a year. In monsoonal areas, there is a real dry season.
  • Rainforests now cover less than 6% of Earth's land surface. Tropical rainforests produce 40% of Earth's oxygen.
  • About 1/4 of all the medicines we use come from rainforest plants. Curare comes from a tropical vine, is used as an anesthetic and to relax muscles during surgery. Quinineis used to treat malaria.
  • There are four very distinct layers of trees in a tropical rain forest. They are the emergent, upper canopy, understory, and forest floor.
  • The soil of the tropical rainforests is shallow, poor in nutrients and without soluble minerals. Years of rainfall have washed away the nutrients in the soil obtained from weathered rocks.
  • The tropical rain forest can be found in three major geographical areas around the world.
  • Central America in the the Amazon river basin.  Africa - Zaire basin, with a small area in West Africa. Indo-Malaysia - west coast of India, Assam, Southeast Asia, New Guinea and Queensland, Australia.

What are the values of the following expressions? In each line assume that,
MissTica

Answer:

double x = 2.5;

double y = -1.5;

int m = 18;

int n = 4;

string s = "Storm";

string t = "Watch";

The output of the expression "x + n*y - (x+n)*y" is "6.25".

and the output of expression "m/n + m%n" is "6".

Explanation:

for the first expression,

x + n*y - (x+n)*y ,put value of every variables in it.

=2.5+4*(-1.5)-(2.5+4)*(-1.5)

=2.5-6.0-(6.5*(-1.5)

=-3.5+9.75

=6.25

for the second expression,

m/n + m%n,  put value of every variables in it.

=18/4 +18%4

=4+2      ("/ will give quotient and % will give remainder")

=6
