These plants produce a sticky material called latex. Latex is used to make rubber. All plants have seeds. Seeds are spread throughout the rainforest by animals, wind, and water. Birds spread seeds when they eat the fruit.
Animals spit the seeds out, the seed falls to the ground and a new plant begins to grow.
Some seeds and nuts are eaten. There are many spices that come from the rainforest. Some are known to you. They are cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger. These and other spices are used throughout the world.
