What does the picture suggest?

The modern horse is related to extinct species

Horses appeared up to a million years ago and did not have any ancestors before that time

Between 55 and 50 million years ago there weren't any animals that could be considered related to horses

The hyracotherium is the same species as the modern horse

Which is an example of a sudden change that could explain the extinction of a species?

a mountain range isolates a species

Which of these describes a likely reason why a species would become extinct after a major environmental change?

There are not enough members of the species born with a trait necessary to survive in the new environment.

The environmental change means fewer predators are around.

There are more homes for the species in the changed environment.

The change in the environment opens new resources with less competition.
