C. Many biotic and abiotic factors can influence the Tropical Rainforest being both harmful and beneficial. Differing factors change the biome in different ways. Average precipitation is a gigantic factor in a tropical rainforest. The average rainfall is normally around 100 inches per year. A large increase or decrease in rain would cause the biome to struggle. The average temperature is normally around 68-95 degrees fahrenheit. A change in average temperature would drastically deteriorate the biome. A rainforest does not recieve a lot of wind throughout the course of a year. The soil composition dates back hundreds of years, and conatin all terrestrial life. The damp soil is the basis for all life in this particular biome. The geographic features that dominate are specifically trees because of their abundance. The solar radiation is strong considering the high temperatures a tropical rainforest possesses. These factors directly affect the biome.

Each of these factors affect adaptations of plants and animals because change in them would create problems for the advancement of species. Evolution would decrease if this biome changed drastically. The most influential factor is precipitation because rainfall is a necessity in a tropical rainforest. The whole biome operates with the right amount of rain each year.
