Explanation:

ANS. (D) 
Tropical rainforests are characterized in two words: hot and wet. Mean monthly temperatures exceed 18 °C during all months of the year. Average annual rainfall is no less than 1,680 mm and can exceed 10 m although it typically lies between 1,750 mm and 3,000 mm. This high level of precipitation results in poor soils due to leaching of soluble nutrients in the ground.
