Which biome is typically warm year-round with heavy rainfall and thick forests?

• A. Desert
• B. Tropical rainforest
• C. Tundra
• D. Grassland

Answer: (B)

A warm, wet climate that stays steady year round supports dense, multi-layered forests. In a tropical rainforest, temperatures stay consistently warm and rainfall is abundant and evenly distributed throughout the year. This combination leads to rapid plant growth and a closed canopy with many forest layers, supporting high biodiversity and a thick forest structure. Deserts are hot but very dry, tundras are cold with frozen soils for much of the year, and grasslands receive enough rain to support grasses rather than tall trees. The described biome fits the tropical rainforest best.
