What makes up the biodiversity of the Amazon Rain Forest?

Answer:

"Over 3 million species live in the rainforest, and over 2,500 tree species (or one-third of all tropical trees that exist on earth) help to create and sustain this vibrant ecosystem." Also, "because rainforests are located in tropical regions, they receive a lot of sunlight. . .Since there is a lot of sunlight, there is a lot of energy in the rainforest. This energy is stored in plant vegetation, which is eaten by animals. The abundance of energy supports an abundance of plant and animal species."
