3. Tropic of Capricorn, just
above and below the Equator
. In this tropic zone the sun
is very strong and shines
about the same amount of
time every day all year long,
keeping the climate warm
and relatively stable.
4. WEATHER
The temperature in the
rainforest is most likely to
be hot and damp. The
average temperature is 25
degrees Celsius and (77
degrees F). Rainforest are
not found for the tempter to
dip bellow 0 degrees Celsius
5. Rainfall
The rainfall can get as less as 1.8m
or (6ft) or it can get as much as 9.0
(30ft) of rain a year. The true about
the rainforest is the rain. There is no
dry season in the rainforest. If there
is a dry period it won’t last long.
Climate/ Effect
The long term effect of the sun’s
radiation on the turning earth’s varied
or different atmosphere it can be
explained easiest in terms of annual or

8. genus contains seven species, all of which
are under threat; the black-headed
spider monkey and brown spider monkey
are critically endangered.
Their disproportionately long limbs and
long prehensile tails make them one of
the largest New World monkeys and
gives rise to their common name. Spider
monkeys live in the upper layers of the
rainforest, and forage in the high
canopy, from 25 to 30 m (82 to 98
ft).[2] They primarily eat fruits, but will
also occasionally consume leaves, flowers,
and insects.[2
9. Toucans are the most
common birds which are
found in Rainforests. They
are of rainbow colors.
10. Recent meta-analyses on primate cognition studies
indicated spider monkeys are the most intelligent
New World monkeys.[4] They can produce a wide
range of sounds and will 'bark' when threatened;
other vocalisations include a whinny similar to a
horse and prolonged screams.[3]
They are an important food source due to their
large size, so are widely hunted by local human
populations; they are also threatened by habitat
destruction due to logging and land clearing.[3]
Spider monkeys are susceptible to malaria and are
used in laboratory studies of the disease.[3] The
population trend for spider monkeys is decreasing;
the IUCN Red List lists one species as vulnerable,
four species as endangered and two species as
critically endangered
