Ecosystem-Rain Forests

This is my google drawing food webs.

Rain Forest

A rain forest is a rainy dense forest found in tropical areas. It is home to more than half of the world’s plant and animal species. It has a wide range of animal species from termites to boa constrictors. A long time ago most of the world’s land was tropical rain forests. Overtime people have a negative impact. They have burned and chopped down tons of trees.

 

Decomposers

Rain forest have decomposers they need them because they’re a lot of animals that die. Some decomposers are fungi, bacteria and termites. If there were no decomposers there would be so many dead animals lying on ground

 

Producers

There are a ton of producers in the rain forest. 70% of them are trees. There are a lot of different layers of trees. A lot of the animals eat the plants. It is very hot so tropical fruit can grow including banana trees, mango trees and other tropical fruit. Other foods grow there to like cocoa beans and cinnamon trees. Tree and leaves are home to many animals.

 

Consumers

There are a lot of consumers in the rain forest. Some are herbivores others are carnivores. Some animals are Boa Constrictors, a lot snakes, insects, termites, tropical birds, small mammals and cats. A lot of them are herbivores.

 

Human Impact

Humans have a very negative impact on rain forest they burn trees to get land for crops. Over time the soil goes bad and the they do it again. They also cut down trees for the lumber. It is important that we stop this if we don’t some of these species might get to be extinct. Same with the plants.

The rain forest is crazy place full of wildlife we need to protect them.

  1. Great job! I think that you did a very good job with the summarizing! It was very hooking and made em want to read more after your first paragraph.

  2. I like how you didn’t keep on repeating information. I also like how you told a lot about how humans impact the rainforest. I also like how you list some producers and consumers.

  3. Sam, I really like all the great facts about all the rain forest such as that half of the species in the world live in the rain forest. I liked all the information on all of the topics. You had a great book with lots of information ?!

  4. I really enjoyed your project. I learned a lot. It was raintastic. You must have researched a lot. Great work!!!!!!!!!

  5. Sam – I really loved your rain forest food web! I did the rain forest too and I learned about the same, bad, impacts that humans are causing. Your post was really interesting to read! I love that you put a subtopic for each new topic – producers, consumers, rain forest, decomposers, and human impact. Great job!! Emily
