 Question 6

Environmental factors that could change the growth of these plants, is the amount
of rainfall that it receives. Example, if it rains too much the plants can get rain rot
and stop growing, especially if the plants are not use to that much rain. Further, if
there is not enough rain they can start to die off. Lastly, development of the land
can cause animals who did not use to live that high up migrate up to it and cause
damage to the plants and thus plants could die.
