The principal characteristic that differentiates temperate and tropical rain-forests is <u>latitude.</u>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
There are two types of rain-forests, namely, the tropical rain-forests and the temperate rain-forests. These two types share some similarities such as being rich in plant and animals species with a greater diversity in tropical rain forest.
However they differ in a number of ways; tropical rain-forests are warm and moist; while temperate rain-forests are cool.
<u><em>Tropical rain-forest, forested areas must: Lie between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, receive rainfall regularly throughout the year, remain frost and free through out the year with little fluctuations.</em></u>
I would say that because Jupiter already has a lot of mass on it and I would suspect that you would too. But I am not sure if it is 100% right, so correct me if I am wrong! Have a nice day! :)
