In the realm of biology and ecology, understanding the causes of extinctions, be it at a species level or on a mass scale, is crucial. Loss of habitat disrupts ecosystems, loss of genetic diversity weakens species' resilience, competition with exotic species can lead to displacement, and the inability to adapt hinders survival. Exploring further, climate change, volcanic eruptions, and asteroid impacts are known triggers of mass extinctions due to their disrupting effects on global ecosystems. Delve into the interconnected complexities of extinction events to comprehend their far-reaching consequences.

Using your own format, answer these questions. You could use paragraphs, bulleted notes, graphic organizer or story/picture board, etc. Extinctions: Using pages 224 – 226. How can loss of habitat, loss of genetic diversity , competition with exotic species and inability to adapt cause extinctions? Explain all parts. Mass Extinctions: Using pages 318 – 323. How can climate change, volcanoes, and asteroid impacts cause mass extinctions? Explain all parts.
