Explanation:

These statements accurately describe rainforests. Rainforests are known as the "jewels of the Earth" because of the enormous diversity of species that can be found there. It is estimated that between 40-75% of all species of plants and animals are found in these regions. Moreover, over a quarter of natural medicines have been discovered here. However, the species found in the rainforests are rapidly decreasing due to deforestation, habitat loss and pollution.

a maximum–minimum thermometer. the scales are fahrenheit on the inside of the u and celsius on the outside. the current temperature is 23 degrees celsius, the maximum recorded is 25, and the minimum is 15, both read from the base of the small markers in each arm of the u tube. the bulbs are hidden by a plastic housing.

six's thermometer is a registering thermometer which can record the maximum and minimum temperatures reached over a period of time, for example 24 hours. it is used to record the extremes of temperature at a location, for instance in meteorology and horticulture. it was invented by a british scientist james six, born in canterbury, in 1780; [1] the same basic design remains in use.

it is also commonly known as a maximum–minimum, minimum–maximum, maxima–minima or minima–maxima thermometer, of which it is the earliest practical design.

the thermometer indicates the current temperature, and the highest and lowest temperatures since last reset.
