The basic repeating unit of nucleic acids are known as nucleotides. A nucleotide consists of three distinct chemical groups, a 5-carbon sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), a nitrogen-rich base - (cytosine (C), guanine (G), adenine (A), thymine (T) in DNA or uracil (U) instead of T (in RNA), and phosphate.
I believe the difference is that Tropical rainforests are warm and moist while the temperate rainforests are cool. Temperate rainforests have four seasons; spring, summer, fall and winter, while tropical forests experience warm weather all year round and do not have the same set of seasons. Additionally; tropical rainforests experience much higher rainfall than temperate rainforests.
