Explanation:

Step1: Locate the row for tropical rain forest in the table

We look at the table under the "AVERAGE YEARLY TEMPERATURE RANGE" column for the tropical rain forest row.

Step2: Read the value

The value in that cell is \(25^{\circ}C - 28^{\circ}C(77^{\circ}F - 83^{\circ}F)\)

Step3: Locate the row for rainfall range \(75 - 125\) cm

We look at the table under the "AVERAGE YEARLY RAINFALL" column.

Step4: Read the biome name

The biome with \(75 - 125\) cm of rainfall is the deciduous forest.

Answer:

1. \(25^{\circ}C - 28^{\circ}C(77^{\circ}F - 83^{\circ}F)\)
2. Deciduous forest
