Tropical rainforests also have high humidity; about 88% during the wet season and approximately 77% in the dry season. ... In fact, rainforest soils are nutrient-poor because nutrients are not stored in them for very long. The heavy rains that occur in rainforests wash organic material from the soil.

Answer: Varies

Explanation: The rainforest during the "wet" season would easily have more water, during the "dry" season there would be more sunlight.
