Question

what kind of houses are build by people residing in the Amazon region​

Answer 1

Answer:

In the Amazon basin, rainforests provide a lot of wood for the houses. Some families live in thatched houses shaped like beehives. There are other large apartment-like houses called “Maloca” with a steeply slanting roof.

Answer 2

Answer:

People in the Amazon region​ reside in two types of houses-

• Thatched wooden house
• Maloca

Explanation:

• The equatorial region is the tropical region around the equator, between 10°N and 10°S.
• This is the area in South America where the Amazon River runs from the mountains in the west to the Atlantic Ocean in the east.
• The rainforest offers ample wood for two types of buildings: thatched houses in the shape of beehives and apartment-style houses (known as 'Maloca') with steeply slanting roofs.
• These dwellings have a straightforward design.
• They are made up of a single room with a low-slung roof that is known as a "casita".
• The house may also have a little patio attached to it.
