(d) Tropical rain forest- These are the regions that covers the vast rain forest areas in the tropical region of both the hemispheres. The temperature here is high is relatively high and high moisture content. As a result of which the rate of evaporation is high and rainfall is maximum. The region is rich in diverse trees and plants species.

(e) Temperate deciduous forest- These are the regions covering the mid latitudes that are rich in the deciduous forest. These are the dry forests comprised of various plant species.
