Answer: Tropical rainforest

Explanation: The tropical rainforest refers to the tropics i.e it is the region between the tropic of cancer and the tropic of capricorn. In this region, the amount sunlight is maximum and provides a whole lot of nutrients and flexibility for the existence of diverse species.

This is region of maximum biodiversity, covering only about 5-10 % of the total land mass, comprised of about 40-50 % of the terrestrial plants as well as animal species.
