Answer:

  1. Despite its constant shade, the rainforest floor is an important part of the forest ecosystem. The forest floor is where decomposition takes place. Decomposition is the process by which fungi and microorganisms break down dead plants and animals and recycle essential materials and nutrients
  2. The food chain begins with a producer, which is eaten by a primary consumer. The primary consumer may be eaten by a secondary consumer, which in turn may be consumed by a tertiary consumer. For example, a food chain might start with a green plant as the producer, which is eaten by a snail, the primary consumerThe sequential process of eating and being eaten is called a food chain. Grass → Grasshopper → Snake → Hawk → Fungi. All food chains begin with green plants or producers. Thus, the plants or producers constitute the first trophic level. Example: Grass.
  3. There are four types of consumers: omnivores, carnivores, herbivores and decomposers. Herbivores are living things that only eat plants to get the food and energy they need. Animals like whales, elephants, cows, pigs, rabbits, and horses are herbivores. Carnivores are living things that only eat meat
  4. Over-grazing and massive movement of cattle destroy huge lands of forests. Massive movements of cattle do not allow the regeneration of plants. Their movement leaves the land infertile and barren.
  5. Plants release oxygen through the process of photosynthesis which helps the animals for respiration. They also maintain the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. That is why the forests are called green lungs.

Answer:

(1) Despite its constant shade, the rainforest floor is an important part of the forest ecosystem. The forest floor is where decomposition takes place. Decomposition is the process by which fungi and microorganisms break down dead plants and animals and recycle essential materials and nutrients.(2) All food chains start with energy from the sun. This energy is captured by plants. Thus the living part of a food chain always starts with plant life and ends with an animal. Plants are called producers because they are able to use light energy from the sun to produce food (sugar) from carbon dioxide and water.(3) There are four types of consumers: omnivores, carnivores, herbivores and decomposers. Herbivores are living things that only eat plants to get the food and energy they need. Animals like whales, elephants, cows, pigs, rabbits, and horses are herbivores. Carnivores are living things that only eat meat.(4) Over-grazing and massive movement of cattle destroy huge lands of forests. Massive movements of cattle do not allow the regeneration of plants. Their movement leaves the land infertile and barren.(5) Plants release oxygen through the process of photosynthesis which helps the animals for respiration. They also maintain the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. That is why the forests are called green lungs.
