Day 6-
Today while Rachel and I were out exploring it started to pour down rain!
The rainforest is the biome that gets the most annual rainfall. There are thousands of diverse plants that grow here.
They have adapted to grow big flat leaves that help them catch water because the trees in the rainforest grow very tall and prevent a lot of water from reaching the ground. Thankfully, because of this we didn't get very wet!

The water cycle is extremely important to the rainforest. Transpiration is very important in the rainforest for the water cycle. Transpiration is when water is evaporated from the leaves of plants.
Transpiration allows for enough water to be evaporated to become condensation and eventually precipitation. This precipitation allows for the diverse variety of plants to grow and flourish.
