Good morning/afternoon, a rainforest is a forest that has annually 250 to 450 centimetres of rain. A tropical rainforest is a rainforest that is found close to the equator in the equatorial zone between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.
Tropical rainforests are only found in environments that are the same temperature almost every day and are always wet. The reason Tropical rainforests are found in Nigeria is because Nigeria is located close to the equator which provides the perfect environment for a Tropical rainforest to flourish. Because Nigeria is located so close to the equator the temperatures are hotter and it gets more sunlight then, for example the south or North Pole which are far away from the equator that are always in the negative temperatures. Because it is hotter near the equator, water evaporates faster. When water evaporates it produces precipitation (also known as rain) which a Tropical rainforest needs to support its dense organic life. …show more content…
Deforestation means there is less plants’ to take in the Earth’s carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. This causes air pollution and global warming. Deforestation also destroys Animal and plants habitats and ecosystems, causing them to die or eventually go extinct. Deforestation contributes about 15% of the Global gas emissions. These emissions that are released from deforestation are trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere which is trapping extra heat causing Earth’s temperature to
