Which climate is characterized by intense sun and daily rain with high humidity, with temperatures that rarely exceed 90 degrees?

• A. Desert
• B. Tropical Rainforest
• C. Savannah
• D. Mediterranean

Answer: (B)

Think about climate types in terms of sun, rain, humidity, and typical temperatures. A tropical rainforest climate features warm temperatures year-round, very high humidity, and frequent rainfall that can occur nearly every day, especially near the equator. That combination creates a climate with intense sun exposure, constant moisture, and heat that stays consistently warm without extreme highs—temperatures often stay around or below 90 degrees.

Desert climates have intense sun but very little rain and low humidity, which doesn’t match the daily rain pattern. Savannahs have a pronounced wet and dry season, not constant daily rain, and Mediterranean climates bring dry summers with milder, seasonal rainfall.
