What is an Ecosystem?
An ecosystem is all the living and nonliving components of a defined geographical area.
Where are the world's tropical rainforests?
What is the dominant plant type in the tropical rainforest biome?
The dominant plant is the broadleaf evergreen tree. Broadleaf evergreen trees form a canopy that covers the rainforest. The canopy is exposed to the sun, but it shades the plants that grow beneath it. Most of the organisms in this biome make their home in the canopy. These trees can grow up to 90 feet tall.
