Answer:
Tropical forest
Explanation:
The tropical forest is an ecological community that is characterized with temperatures throughout all of the year, as well as high amount of precipitation and humidity. These ecological communities are located at the equator and near the equator, thus on the very low latitudes. They are home to more than half of the animal and plant species on planet Earth. They have the highest concentrations of living organisms, having also the highest diversification on the planet. The tropical forests are fascinating in every possible way, and it is a shame that the research in them is still largely descriptive, because the terrain and the conditions are extremely tough for any other method to be put in practice.
Answer:
No
Explanation:
Water does not pass the test of being a solid so it is not considered a mineral although ice; which is solid, is classified as a mineral as long as it is naturally occurring. Thus ice in a snow bank is a mineral, but ice in an ice cube from a refrigerator is not.
The 3 major mountain ranges in the United States are the Pacific ranges and Rocky Mountains in the west and the Appalachian mountains in the east. The Pacific ranges are on the northwestern coast of the United States. The Rocky Mountains are in the western United States but east of the Pacific ranges. They extend all the way from Canada into Mexico and cover 8 states. The Appalachian Mountains are near the East Coast of the United States. They extend from Canada to Alabama. The main difference between the eastern mountain ranges and the western mountain ranges is their ages and heights. The Appalachian Mountain range is the oldest range in the United States. Because of this, the range has faced weathering and erosion, which has worn the mountains down. The highest peaks in the Appalachians are only 6,000 feet. The ranges in the west are much younger and in some cases still growing. The mountains in the west are much higher than those in the east, with peaks over 14,000 ft.
