The Amazon Basin is the part of South America drained by the Amazon River and its tributaries. The Amazon drainage basin covers an area of about 6,300,000 km2 (2,400,000 sq mi), or about 35.5 percent of the South American continent. It is located in the countries of Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana (France), Guyana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela.[1]

In Western modern medicine, around 25% of all drugs are derived from rainforest plants. That's an impressive statistic, especially considering that less than 5% of Amazon plant species have been studied for their potential medicinal benefits.
(CNN) The Amazon rainforest could turn into a grassy savannah within 49 years of reaching an ecological tipping point, scientists have warned. A team of researchers found that once they start collapsing, the world's largest ecosystems, such as the Amazon, are likely to be gone much faster than previously thought.
Different sections of the rainforest experience different levels and periods of rainfall. While the average annual rainfall is almost 120 inches, some areas can get nearly 400 inches of rain a year. Much of the rain falls between October and May.
