Explain how the three major types of forests differ in their climate and vegetation. why is biodiversity so high in tropical rain forests?

Answered

Explanation:

Tropical rain Forest

- High rainfall , warm temperature, high humidity

- rich biodiversity

- broad green leaves, all round year green.

- active decomposition.

The temperate deciduous forest

- Cooler temperature, lower rate decomposition.

-Coastal coniferous forests or temperate rain forests are found in scatted coastal temperate areas with ample rainfall or moisture from dense ocean fogs.

Boreal Forest or Taiga

- Coniferous Trees

-These forests are found just south of the arctic tundra in northern regions. In this subarctic climate, winters are long and extremely cold.

- Store house of nutrients because of very slow decomposition rate and  they accumulate a thick layer of slowly decaying leaf litter

a mid-ocean ridge or mid-oceanic ridge is an underwater mountain range, formed by plate tectonics. this uplifting of the ocean floor occurs when convection currents rise in the mantle beneath the oceanic crust and create magma where two tectonic plates meet at a divergent boundary.a geomagnetic reversal is a change in a planet's magnetic field such that the positions of magnetic north and magnetic south are interchanged.
