Bicycles that have removeable fron wheel?

Pertty much all bikes have removeable front wheels. Some come off with a quick-release(basically you flip a lever), some need a tool. If you're talking about bikes that are meant to be ridden with the front wheel removed then it's a custom built trick bike.

Why aren't mountain bikes made like road bikes?

Same reason Indy cars aren't built like off-road cars, they're meant to be used for different purposes. Road bikes are meant to travel fast on hard, smooth surfaces, while mountain bikes are meant to travel slower on uneven, loose ground. Different uses, different designs. What you need to do good under one set of circumstances might not be that useful under another set of circumstances.

How did the dirt bike transform over the years?

Dirt bikes draw their origin from scrambling contests in the United Kingdom at the start of the century, where early motorcycles were raced along trails. These racers eventually started to adapt their bikes to cope with the terrain, the factories caught on to the act and started introducing motorcycles to cater for these people, with longer travel suspension, lighter stiffer frames and so on. Scrambling eventually evolved into trial and enduro rallies and became a worldwide sport, culminating in the ISDT(now the ISDE). All the different factories started competing against each other. The first major transformation of dirt bikes was the introduction of effective suspension, front and rear. The next major breakthrough was the advent of expansion pipes for two stroke engines which virtually eliminated the four stroke thumper from most types of competition due to it's better power, lighter weight and simple design. Dirt bikes continued to evolve over the years gradually getting more powerful, lighter, with better suspension and increasing reliability. Eventually mono-shock rear suspension replaced dual shock rears and the bikes became more specialised for the type of competition they were used for, trials, motocross, enduro, desert racing or just trail riding. Rule changes in competition meant that two-stoke bikes had to compete with four-strokes almost twice their size. This brought about a resurgance in fourstroke motorcycles which seem to have turned the tables. Aluminium frames replace the steel frames that were common less than a decade ago. The latest development is the introduction of fuel injected engines over carburated engines.
