the Amazon rainforest.

The first layer in the rainforest is called the Emergent Layer, emergents are the tallest trees in the rainforest and grows as high as 200 feet it is the highist layer. !!

The second layer is called canopy layer it is the primary layer of the forest and forms a roof over the two remaining layers. !!

the next layer is called the understory layer it gets little sunshine and reaches small areas so the plants have to grow larger leaves to reach the sunlight. !!

then its the shrub layer, The shrub layer is composed mostly of woody, perennial shrubs less than ten feet in height. !!

the smallest layer and the last layer is called forestfloor, The air near the forest floor is hot and humid only two percent of the light that reaches the canopy can get through to the forest floor. !!
