Social structure on elephants is very structured and very different between females and males. Females live on family groups made up of mothers, daughters, sisters and aunts, led by the eldest female or MATRIARCH. Mature males or BULLS, around the age of fourteen, occasionally form loose associations with other males but only the most dominant males will be permitted to breed with females.

Goes back to the ancient days when elephants were used to move a lot of things. One elephant ,one day, refused and its owner went behind the elephant and smacked him in the jewels with a log. After that the elephant was fine. The next day another elephant did the same thing. Its owner asked the elephant if he remembered yesterday. The elephant nodded. The owner then asked the elephant if he wanted to get hit and the elephant shook his head vigorously and behaved himself..We been shaking and nodding the same way ever since.

I believe it relates to the time when India was part of the British Empire.  Elephants were and are used as farm animals but were also used at events and celebrations.

elephant seal \n\n \nScientific classification \nKingdom: Animalia \nPhylum: Chordata \nClass: Mammalia \nOrder: Carnivora \nFamily: Phocidae \nGenus: Mirounga \n \nSpecies \nM. leonina\nM. angustirostris\n \nThere are two species of elephant seal. They are the sole members of the genus Mirounga of the family Phocidae or "true seals".\n\nThe species are the Northern Elephant Seal, Mirounga angustirostris, and the Southern Elephant Seal, M. leonina. Both species were hunted nearly to extinction by the end of the nineteenth century but numbers have since recovered. The Southern Elephant Seal is somewhat the bigger of the two.\n\nThe elephant seals get their name from their great size and the fact that the adult males have a large proboscis, which is used in making extraordinarily loud roaring noises, especially during the mating season. Elephant seals are also quite large, as the largest known bull elephant seal was 22 feet (6.7 m) in length and weighed 7,500 lb (3,400 kg). This makes them indeed the largest members of the order Carnivora that ever lived

Ask your teacher to help you do the research that can verify what she meant by her answer, and perhaps together you can find out if there any truth to the other person's answer as well.\n\nSometimes two or more people can be correct when they are both giving different answers to the same question.\n\nWell, blind man, have you seen the elephant? Tell me, what sort of thing is an elephant?'"Thereupon the men who were presented with the head answered, 'Sire, an elephant is like a pot.' And the men who had observed the ear replied, 'An elephant is like a winnowing basket.' Those who had been presented with a tusk said it was a ploughshare. Those who knew only the trunk said it was a plough; others said the body was a grainery; the foot, a pillar; the back, a mortar; the tail, a pestle, the tuft of the tail, a brush.\n\n"Then they began to quarrel, shouting, 'Yes it is!' 'No, it is not!' 'An elephant is not that!' 'Yes, it's like that!' and so on."  This is the parable of the blind men and the elephant.
