About The Rainforest Game APK
Table Of Contents
Description
What a way to learn about rainforest ecology concepts! This game has an interactive interface with four playing levels designed to challenge players to experiment with environmental factors that control forest growth and animal populations. The focus is on carbon because where there’s forest carbon, there is structure, and that means habitat for animals — and potential for biodiversity. Find out what happens if carbon is stored not in the forest trees and soil, but in the air. What does it mean for the sloths (herbivores) and jaguars (carnivores)? What are the consequences for global warming when the forest does not grow well? Play the game and find out!! Armed with your new understanding of carbon cycling, explore the impacts of land-use change on global warming and biodiversity. Evaluate the trade-offs between agricultural production and forest ecosystem services as you develop critical thinking skills.Key Features
• Easy navigation among four levels that address different ecological concepts
• Interactive learning materials that present information and test understanding
• Authentic sound track and photos from Costa Rican rainforests
• Based on scientific data generated from NSF-funded research projects conducted at La Selva Biological Station

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
