Adaptation of Plants in the Rainforest

In the rainforest, plants exhibit remarkable adaptations that ensure their survival and reproduction. They have evolved various strategies for pollination and seed dispersion, often relying on insects, animals, and the wind.

Adaptation of Plants in the Rainforest

Grow on trees that form the canopy of the rainforest

These plants are known as creepers since they grow on trees for support and norishment(parasites)

Large leaves

Greater surface area

Note that since little or no light penetrates the canopy, the plants adapt by having strong, woody stems and larger leaves

Rainforest formation

Undergrowth-Made up of generally shrubs and bushes

Middle layer-Consists of smaller trees

Top layer(canopy)-Made up of the highest trees in the rainforest

Adaptation of Plants in the Rainforest

Reproduction

Pollination
Through insects & wind
Seed disersion
Mostly through animals and wind dispersion

Survival in low light

Structural adaptations
