Compared to the tropical rainforests, the temperate rainforests generally have a. less biomass b. more biomass c. more broad-leaf trees d. locations near the equator

  a. less biomass

Explanation:

The tropical rainforests are found in the regions of warm climatic conditions but receives an annual rainfall of 400 inches which supports the diversity of tree species in this region. The temperate forests exhibit moderate climatic conditions and moderate rate of annual precipitation of 100 inches.

The tropical rainforests exhibit a large diversity of broad leafed trees. But the diversity of trees in the temperate rainforest becomes low due to inadequate rainfall. The environment of the temperate rainforest can only support the growth of mosses, fern and deciduous trees. This makes the biomass of the temperate rainforest lesser than the tropical rainforest. The biomass can be define as the amount of energy available in the ecosystem. As the lower number of the diversity of producer (plants and trees) cannot support the fauna of the region.

the answer is: trichonympha lives in the gut of termites and digests cellulose eaten by the termite.

this is an example of a symbiotic association of a protozoan with its mode of association.
