The mass extinction occurring today differs from those that occurred in the past because it is due mainly due to the actions of one species. The species in question is man since man's activities has resulted in such things as global warming which have vastly affected the earth's environments and the living conditions of other species.

The main reason for the difference in the mass extinction occurring today and previously is the pace of the current extinction. The extinction is taking place globally and involves hundreds of species at the same time. In less than 50 years, we have lost numerous species. In contrast to this, previously during the mass extinction, only a few species were lost, and other managed to survive. But, not the status is opposite due to the magnitude of the extinction.

Predict whether antelope and squirrels or squirrels and rabbits will have more similar DNA
Alexandra [31]

Short explanation:

It is true that all animals including humans share a common ancestor, so we're all related in a way. Turns out, some species are more similar to other since they shared a longer "common-evolutive path".

Comparison:

If we compare antelope and squirrels, we might see they don't have much in common. Antelopes are bigger, have a different diet, have a differnt habitat, have a different colour, have horns, etc. And all that also applies to squirrels.

If we compare rabbits and squirrels, we can see that the have a similar size, similar diet, alike teeth, a similar habitat in some occasions, etc.

Answer:

The most logical prediction would be that rabbits and squirrels have more similar DNA than antelope and squirrels.

Hope it helped,
