COMPREHENSION SECTION

The Amazon Rainforest

The Amazon Rainforest is the largest tropical rainforest in the world. It covers over 5.5 million square kilometers across nine countries in South America, including Brazil, Peru, and Colombia. The rainforest is home to an incredible array of plants and animals, including more than 40,000 plant species, over 1,300 bird species, and over 3,000 fish species.

The Amazon Rainforest is often referred to as the 'lungs of the Earth' because it produces a significant portion of the world's oxygen. The rainforest is also an important source of freshwater, with about 15% of the world's freshwater flowing through its rivers.
