Plants
Bamboo
The bamboo adapts to the rainforest because it needs lots of water and it rains a lot in the rain forest.
Orchid
The orchid adapts because this plant does not have access to the wet soil because they grow on branches, so they capture and store water for itself when it rains.
Palm Tree
Palm trees adapt because the deep roots of a palm tree allow it to reach far below the soil and obtain the necessary water and minerals stored at the bottom.
Animlas
Tucan
The fruits of the rainforest are very sweet, and the toucan had to adapt to eating such sweet fruits.
Panda
Pandas adapt to the rainforest because the teeth are wide and the jaws are powerful they are necessary to chew tough bamboo leave.
Red Eye Frog
Red eye tree frogs adapt to the rainforest because they have long sticky tongues to help them latch onto their prey for an easier hunt.
Consuners and produsers
Animals are consumers because they consume there energy from food like plants, insects, and sometimes other animals.
