Woolly mammoths and elephants evolved from the same animal, they share a common ancestor. Scientists think that an area where this ancestor lived started getting colder.

Explain how this would bring about different species. 4 marks

More of the individuals survived and bred and over time they formed new species. ]]> 2016-11-01 06:07:30 UTC https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391663 They would start developing different features because it's getting colder. they would kill the ones with hair and bring in different species. https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391686 2016-11-01 06:07:50 UTC https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391686 https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391696 Cailin : 
As the it get colder, there would be more competition for food, to have more energy. However as the temperature drops the mamaths with more hair would be able to survive and the mamths with out hair these animals will die out.]]> 2016-11-01 06:07:58 UTC https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391696 Those mamuts with longer hair survived in the cold and produced offspring with long hair. The mamuts with shorter hair were killed off. https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391764 Joshua Lowe]]> 2016-11-01 06:09:21 UTC https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391764 https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391782 GIs it because some animals need to adapt to the weather so the animals start growing different species so they can adapt to the weather  ]]> 2016-11-01 06:09:39 UTC https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391782 Z https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391821 This is because the animals by time adapt to the temperature and the elephants have fur to adapt to the cold just like the mammoths did because they were hairy and the group was hairy too so that passes on to the elephants]]> 2016-11-01 06:10:35 UTC https://padlet.com/dsmith88/zhj1gekoxn43/wish/134391821
