Amazon Rainforest: In the Amazon Rainforest is rains almost every day. There are very tall trees that create a canopy, and the ground of the forest is covered in plants. The plants on the ground try to grow wide or tall to reach sunlight. The very tall trees can block much of the sunlight.

Which animal would most likely NOT survive in this habitat, and why?

Which animal would most likely NOT survive in this habitat, and why?

Panda: This bear is huge and can weigh up to 300 pounds. It has very thick black and white fur that keeps it warm when it is cold or chilly outside. It primarily eats bamboo but will also eat rodents, grass, and meat if needed. They drink their water from streams and rivers. They take shelter in hollow trees and the holes between rocks.

Sahara Desert: The Sahara Desert is made entirely of sand. It rarely rains and is very dry. There are only a few plants, and they have small leaves. The sand is scorching and moves every time it is touched; when the wind blows, the sand shifts in all directions.

Based on the information provided, how well would the panda survive in this habitat, and why?

Bromeliads: Bromeliads grow on tree trunks and branches and wrap their roots around the trees. They need wet habitats to grow well. They have a center portion like a cup or bowl that collects water. Their leaves are waxy, and the water slides into the center. The leaves are long and curved to collect water.

Janine says that she believes bromeliads would do well in the Amazon Rainforest, while Natalie thinks they will not do well in that habitat. Who (if anyone) is correct and has an argument that supports their point of view?

Organisms and their habitats depend on each other for survival. What would happen if one member of the habitat was removed?
