Part of the environment includes the forest. The Amazon rain forest is five million square kilometers, which equates to two million square miles and covers much of South America. Half of earth’s animal and plant species live in the Amazon forest. The temperature remains about seventy-five to eighty degrees Fahrenheit year round. Some products found in the forest are coca and nuts. Many plants found there can be used as medicine. Many tropical fruits, oils, and spices come from the Amazon area. There are multiple layers of the magnificent forest, including the forest floor, understory, canopy, top layer, and emergent layer. Each layer is home to a different mixture of animals and plants.
