How did the tropical rainforest started?

Biology
1 answer:
stepan [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The rainforest likely formed during the Eocene era (from 56 million years to 33.9 million years ago). It appeared following a global reduction of tropical temperatures when the Atlantic Ocean had widened sufficiently to provide a warm, moist climate to the Amazon basin.The canopy is the main site of interchange for energy, water vapor and atmospheric gasses like oxygen and carbon dioxide. Canopy leaves act as trillions of tiny solar panels converting the strong sunlight to energy, and water evaporating from the trees contributes to the humid climate around tropical rainforests.High temperatures at the Equator create rising pockets of air. The rising air cools rapidly and begins to condense, creating towering, tall storm clouds and rain.
