Also, a difference in traits between these plants has led to an increased amount of species and has allowed for its diversity to flourish while still allowing for its "family" to grow and progress.]]> 2021-02-18 17:50:00 UTC https://padlet.com/angiejon64/tz51el0b0uxff0hu/wish/1216317292 Evidence#2 angiejon64 https://padlet.com/angiejon64/tz51el0b0uxff0hu/wish/1219825456 According to the 8.1 Table "Information About the Number of Different Families
That Have Been Identified in the 
Fossil Record (Benton 1993, 1995)," 327 million years before our present time there were only 7 types of insects in contrast to 551 species of insects 0.8 million years before our present time.

This allows for animals to not only adapt by developing different traits suitable for their survival, but to branch off into many different variations permitting it to still be genetically similar, but have a couple differences such as phenotypes (for example, different color fur).]]> 2021-02-19 18:19:20 UTC https://padlet.com/angiejon64/tz51el0b0uxff0hu/wish/1219892506 Group: angiejon64 https://padlet.com/angiejon64/tz51el0b0uxff0hu/wish/1219990397 Alex Pagan
