Bacteria will live until the end of time if you let it. Bacteria is a parasite that unless destroyed by something can accumulate and live for as long as it survives. As they say, life always finds a way
A million? The age is over 4 billion years.
All it takes is one bacteria. The cell's divide by binary fission where the microbes DNA splits to form a new cell.
No. Sauropods first appeared a little over 200 million years ago and died out about 65 million years ago.
Wolves have changed some over the past 20 million years, but not by a huge amount. There are fossils of mosquitoes in amber that are remarkably similar to modern mosquitoes, though they are over 200 million years old. Coelacanth is a variety of fish for which modern specimens are somewhat similar to species that lived at the close of the Cretaceous, 65 million years ago. So there are a few creatures that have not changed a whole lot over vast stretches. Horseshoe crabs are yet another example, for which there are specimens over 440 million years old.
Which natural event can occur either over a few weeks or over a few million years?
Rates of erosion may greatly vary over a million years.
Fossilized Bacteria
A common bacteria, E.coli, will multiply very fast. For example, an E.Coli will multiply into over a million bacteria in 8 hours.
Over a million years.
They are BILLIONS years of age
160 million years
the land has separated and some have expanded over the 425 million year span
