Noah's Ark
Noah's Ark is a vessel describes in Genesis chapters 6-9 of the Hebrew Bible. In the story, God instructs a man named Noah to build an ark to providing a save-haven for Noah, his family, and all species of animals. Once Noah and his fellow travelers are aboard the ark, God enacts a massive flood, destroying all other living things on the planet. The inhabitants of the ark go on to repopulate the world after the great flood.

The short answer is, it regrew, either from vegetative cuttings which floated on rafts of vegetation or from preserved seed.
It also must be remembered that Noah did not immediately disembark from the ark and so there was time for plants and grasses to start to regrow. There was a large expanse of land with relatively little fauna to eat the plants which grew upon it. In the relatively close proximity of the ark itself the grass etc would of course have been eaten down but in a relatively short time the earth would have been covered once again. The need to go searching for food would also have assisted in the dispersion of the non-domesticated animals post-flood.
Which animal did Noah use to check the levels of the water?
Noah used a bird and not a animal, it was a dove.

What is the estimated number of animals on Noah's ark?
The Avibase database contains records about 10,000 species and 22,000 subspecies of birds in the world. In addition, some birds have become extinct in recent centuries, while many in remote areas have not yey been catalogued. If we regard the story of Noah's Ark as literally true, there must have been over 80,000 birds representing over 40,000 species and subspecies. They range from the ostrich and the even larger, extinct moa down to the smallest finches.
As an estimate, there would have to have been more than a million animals, all of which would have needed to be returned to exactly the right location on the globe after the Flood subsided.
Another Answer:
Considering a statistical approach for this question, it is easy to see that Noah's Ark could have carried its intended cargo. A study by John Woodmorappe ( Noah's Ark: A Feasibility Study, 1996, p. 7), indicates the total of the animals that Noah would have needed in the ark to meet the biblical requirements (see Genesis 6) would number between 2,000 and 16,000-not in the hundreds of thousands or even millions as many reason to have been necessary.
Genesis 6:17-20 - New King James Version (NKJV)
17 And behold, I Myself am bringing floodwaters on the earth, to destroy from under heaven all flesh in which isthe breath of life; everything that is on the earth shall die.18 But I will establish My covenant with you; and you shall go into the ark-you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you. 19 And of every living thing of all flesh you shall bring two of every sort into the ark, to keep them alive with you; they shall be male and female. 20 Of the birds after their kind, of animals after their kind, and of every creeping thing of the earth after its kind, two of every kind will come to you to keep them alive.
A cursory reading of Genesis 6 will reveal some often overlooked, but very important details. The Bible doesn't state anywhere that Noah had to take on board the Ark all or every living creature. There were only three requirements for the animals to be loaded on the ark. They had to be 'air-breathing' and of the same biblical kind and only land-dwelling - all ocean creatures were unaffected. A biblical 'kind' is akin to a 'genus' in science today. Even evolutionary scientist attest that every 'dog' today came from a single pair and taken farther, all 'canine' family (wolves, bears, foxes, dogs, etc) could come from a basic 'kind' of pairing over time.
The Ark was the size of a WWII US Aircraft Carrier and therefore had more than enough space to house the terrestrial creatures, including the 8 humans over the year plus conveniently. After their release, God 'de-pacifies' the animals and puts the fear of man into them. He scatters them on their way (timing unknown) to their particular geographic locations just as He did to man (beginning of the dispersal with later various migrations) in the Tower of Babel story.

How many people disobeyed God in the bible?
I'm not sure exactly how many people disobeyed God in the Bible, but what I can say with certainty is that everyone, great or small, poor or rich, young or old, has disobeyed God and what he commands, except for Jesus. Jesus, who is both God and true man, came down to Earth, was born of the virgin Mary, lived a perfect life, was crucified and had an innocent death, and rose again and ascended into heaven, taking away our sins and saving all those who believe.

According to Genesis, we know the names of three of Noah's sons: Ham, Shem, and Japeth. Shem is the father of the "Semitic" races (or Shemitic - taking dialects into account). He may have had other sons, but they are not mentioned in the Bible.

What do you learn about redemption from Noah?
Our time period is likened to Noah's day:
(Matthew 24:37-39)"... For just as the days of Noah were, so the presence of the Son of man will be. For as they were in those days before the flood, eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark; and they took no note until the flood came and swept them all away, so the presence of the Son of man will be..." Hebrews 11:7; 1Peter 3:20, 21.
Our survival is based on obedience to God.
(Genesis 6:7-9)"...This is the history of Noah. Noah was a righteous man. He proved himself faultless among his contemporaries. Noah walked with the [true] God."
(Genesis 6:22) " And Noah proceeded to do according to all that God had commanded him. He did just so."(Genesis 7:5)
(Hebrews 11:7)"...By faith Noah, after being given divine warning of things not yet beheld, showed godly fear and constructed an ark for the saving of his household; and through this faith he condemned the world, and he became an heir of the righteousness that is according to faith." (Ezekiel 14:14, 20) And Noah was blessed for his obedience (Genesis 9:1)
Part of our responsibility, like Noah, is to preach about God's message:
(2 Peter 2:5&6) "...and he .... kept Noah, a preacher of righteousness, safe with seven others when he brought a deluge upon a world of ungodly people..."
(Matthew 24:14)"...and this good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all nations, and then the end will come". (Matthew 28:19&20)NWT
Additional thought:
The salvation of Noah and his family from physical death pictures what happens to those who trust in Christ, who saves believers from the spiritual consequences of sin: (1 Peter3:18-22) "For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison[from the flood]; Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. The like figure [type or picture] whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God [because of belief, witnessed by public baptism] ,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ: Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him."
