The account in the book of Genesis (roughly chapters 6-8) do not mention anything about how the animals entered the ark. It does say that there was a single door to the ark (Genesis 6:16), but how big that door was is not specified. Tradition says the animals entered "two by two." Tradition also forgets to note that Noah was told to bring in 7 of each type of clean animal, not just the standard "one pair of each."
No. Every animal need its mate to replenish the Earth.
Additional thought:
This is only partially correct. If you read in The Bible in Genesis 7:2, it mentions that Noah is to take the clean animals by 7's and the unclean by 2's. This gives the understanding that Noah and his family should be able to eat of the clean animals. Since only 2 are needed to replenish the earth, and one was required for sacrifice once he got off of the ark, there were 4 of each clean animal remaining. Not to mention the fact that Noah and his family were on the boat for over a year and there was a possibility that the animals would mate.
Another thought:
No. NO ONE on the ark ate ANY of the animals. According to Genesis 1:30/Genesis 6:21 ALL living things were vegetarian until AFTER the flood, at which time, Noah was told that meat was now included in the diet(Genesis 9:1-4).
The majority of animals on the earth were wiped out by the flood(Genesis 7:21-24). Whether or not there were some TYPES of animals not included in the collection on the ark, is not known, but we're told that representatives of EVERY clean beast and EVERY unclean beast went into the ark(Genesis 7:8+9) so there were probably NO other species left behind.
Yes, after all the animals and all his family was in the ark he walked and god sealed for him...
He took his wife, his sons, and his sons' wives. He most likely also took everything he needed to survive on the Ark.
It came to land on a hill.
The bible says that there was a raven and dove in the Ark.
There were pairs (male and female) of either two or seven of each kind on the ark. The Bible says they entered the ark in twos. Many aquatic animals would not have needed to enter the ark at all.
noahs ark is at my house my whole family lives in it it is a nice ark to live in i sleep in the biggest room and there are still some of the animals in there
There were two arks , Noahs ark and the ark of the covenant.The ark of the covenant was to carry the ten commandments. Today, the ark is a cabinet in synagogues, normally at the front of the sanctuary, where the Torahs are kept.
You can find a complete list of animals claimed to be taken into Noah's Ark on the Temple-Baptist home website. You can also find a list on the Noahs-Ark-Flood website.

Besides the animals, Noah, his wife, his three sons (Shem, Ham, and Japheth), and their wives were on Noah's Ark.
He destroyed it by the flood during Noahs days, but the fanily and the animals were on the ark to continue life.
