Solution

The correct option is A Amazonian

The tropical rainforests contain the greatest diversity of species of all biomes on earth. They are typically found near the equator. As compared to the temperate and boreal forests, these rainforests have a more stable, unchanging, warm and humid climate throughout the year, that supports many different types of species.
