Because of the climate and the protection that the trees provide. Because rain forests are in tropical regions, they get a large amount of sunlight which helps the plants grow. These plants then feed the animals and help them thrive. The canopy-like structure gives animals places to hide and live.

Tropical rain forests are warm and wet, and the temperature does not vary much. Because of this, a huge variety of plants can live in tropical rain forests. Because there are so many kinds of plants, there are habitats for many different kinds of animals as well.

Which of these is the force exerted by the leading edge of a subducting<br> plate?

nadezda [96]

Answer: Slab Pull

Explanation:

Whilst I was unable to find the options for your question I believe the answer to be the Slab Pull.

Slab Pull refers to the force exerted by an oceanic plate sinking into the mantle.

The Slab Pull happens because the oceanic plate is colder and denser than the hotter mantle and this difference causes the plate sink further and as it does so it pulls the rest of the plate along with it in a process called Subduction. This is why the question called it a Subducting Plate.

I have attached a diagram showing the process.
