<h2>Broad leaves in Tropical Rainforests:</h2>

Plants that grow near the ground and tropical rainforests have broad leaves to capture as much sunlight.

The tropical forests are warm and moist due to evenly distributed rainfall. These makes it a habitable place for many leafy plants. There trees in the tropical forest are tall forming dense forest providing shades for the forest floors.

Since, plants require sunlight for photosynthesis, the broad leaves help to capture and trap the little sunlight penetrating through the tall trees. The tropical forests are also habitable for microorganisms and other bacteria which decompose quickly and become nutrients for the rapid growing plants and trees. Frequent precipitations also leach out nutrients making the soil infertile and acidic.

The persian empire was eventually weakened by

svp [43]

King Xerxes tried to carry on his father Darius I's attempt to establish an ethnic frontier by subjugating mainland Greece, as the mainland Greek states were fomenting rebellion in the Greek states in Asia which were under Persian control. He lost, and Athens established an anti-Persian league which dominated the eastern Mediterranean.

Although the internal fighting in the Greek world subsequently eroded the strength of the Greek states, and Persian gold was able to buy influence in them, the rise of Macedonia, and Philip II's and then Alexander's control of Greece tipped the balance of power against Persia. 

Alexander took the empire's Mediterranean coastline and so removed the Persian fleet, and as on land Persia's military forces were unable to match the power of Macedonian-Greek forces, he was able to defeat them in three major battles, and so take over the Persian Empire.
