What new questions arose as Darwin studied fossils?
Darwin wondered why so many species had disappeared and how they were related to living species.
Has any group of animals completely disappeared?
Ya many species of animals go extinct like Dinosaurs for example
Is extinction normal?
Extinction is an intrinsic part of the evolution of new species, and is a direct consequence of the forces of natural selection. However, unlike the divergence of species (a process called speciation), one or more species can go extinct at variable rates. For example, marsupial mammals disappeared (from the larger continents)over a long period of time as they lost out to placental mammals. However, most species today disappear at alarmingly rapid rates because of the loss of their habitat.
How many scientists believe extinction is real?
Essentially all of them. The fossil record indicates that many species that existed in the past are no longer alive. Regrettably some species that were being monitored in recent decades have disappeared and numerous species that are also being watched at the present are in sharp decline.
Is there a species of macaws called blue macaws?
yes, there are many species and that is one of them
What is a species that has no more individuals living on earth?
A species that has died out is called an extinct species. There are many of them. Dinosaurs for instance.
What animals are extinct now that werent in the sotne age?
There are far too many to list; several species currently die out every day. Some such animals include the dodo bird (disappeared in the 1600's), the thylacine (disappeared in 1936), the passenger pigeon (disappeared in 1914), aurochs (died out in the 1600's). A more recent extinction is that of the Caribbean monk seal.
What are species cattle called?
There is only one species of domestic cattle, however humans have produced many breeds from that species.
What is a brief period of time in which large numbers of species die out and disappear?
A brief period of time in which large numbers of species die out and disappear is known as a mass extinction event. These events have occurred five times in Earth's history, with the most well-known being the extinction of the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous period.
How many species lived in Pangaea?
At the beginning of the Triassic period, there were no dinosaurs on Pangaea, the super continent. At the end of the period, it is not known exactly how many there were. There are about 700 named dinosaurs.

Which period is known as the age of fishes?
The period known as the "Age of Fishes" is the Devonian period, which occurred approximately 419 to 359 million years ago. It is called so because it was a time when fish diversity and abundance greatly increased, with many new species evolving and adapting to various aquatic environments.
