Explanation
Lianas are large, climbing and woody vines that drape tropical rainforest trees. They have adapted to life in the rainforest by having their roots in the ground and climbing high onto the tree canopy to reach available sunlight. Many lianas start life in the rainforest canopy and send roots down to the ground. Tropical rainforests are lush, dense, and biodiverse ecosystems characterized by high annual rainfall and consistently warm temperatures. They are found near the equator in regions of Central and South America, Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Islands. Tropical rainforests are some of the most complex and ecologically rich environments on Earth.
