Tropical rainforest is characterized by high rainfall that allows a diverse growth of plant species. The different species of plants and animals species that make up a rainforest are found in different layers. There are four layers or sections in the rainforest from top to bottom viz: emergent layer, canopy, understory and forest floor.
Since the layers are classified from top to bottom, each layer receives different amount of rainfall and sunlight. According to the question, the FOREST FLOOR receives the least amount of sunlight making it the darkest section of the rainforest. Due to the inhibited penetration of sunlight into this layer, it usually does not support any plant growth.
