D
Correct answer
Explanation
Tropical rainforests are characterized by very tall trees, with the canopy typically reaching 40-60 meters or more. The emergent layer can exceed 70 meters. This vertical stratification creates multiple habitat zones. The 60-meter option best represents the maximum height of these forest giants, compared to shorter values for other forest types.
