The tropical rain forest is a forest of tall trees in a region of year-round warmth. An average of 50 to 260 inches of rain falls yearly. Rain forests belong to the tropical wet climate group.
Explanation:
- The temperature in a rain forest rarely gets higher than 93 °F or drops below 68 °F. The average humidity is between 77 and 88%, rainfall is often more than 100 inches a year. In monsoonal areas, there is a real dry season.
- Rainforests now cover less than 6% of Earth's land surface. Tropical rainforests produce 40% of Earth's oxygen.
- About 1/4 of all the medicines we use come from rainforest plants. Curare comes from a tropical vine, is used as an anesthetic and to relax muscles during surgery. Quinineis used to treat malaria.
- There are four very distinct layers of trees in a tropical rain forest. They are the emergent, upper canopy, understory, and forest floor.
- The soil of the tropical rainforests is shallow, poor in nutrients and without soluble minerals. Years of rainfall have washed away the nutrients in the soil obtained from weathered rocks.
- The tropical rain forest can be found in three major geographical areas around the world.
-
Central America in the the Amazon river basin. Africa - Zaire basin, with a small area in West Africa. Indo-Malaysia - west coast of India, Assam, Southeast Asia, New Guinea and Queensland, Australia.
Program to display greater number:
#include <iostream> <em>// Needed to perform IO operations </em>
#include<conio.h> <em> // header file</em>
using namespace std;
int main() //start of the program
{
int a , b =0; //initialising the two integer variable
cout<< "Enter first number"<<endl;
cin >> a; //user's first number
cout<< "Enter second number"<<endl;
cin >> b; //user's second number
if (a>b) //comparing the two integers input by user
cout<< a << "is greater than" << b; //display the greater number
else
cout<< b << "is greater than" << a;
return 0; // exist

Framing in photography is one way of covering the other parts of the subject. Framing gives the photo some context, depth and layers and make the image as the main focal point.
