Why did the Quaternary Period end?

Quaternary PeriodIt hasn't, yet. Geologic time was originally divided into four parts, Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, and Quaternary, with the Quaternary being the current time of life. Eventually it was realized that the Primary and Secondary were much more distinctly different than the Tertiary and Quaternary, so the were re-named the Paleozoic (old life) and Mesozoic (middle life) eras, while the Tertiary and Quaternary were classified periods within the Cenozoic (recent life) era. The Tertiary contains the first five epochs, while the Quaternary contains the last two.Some consider the division between Tertiary and Quaternary to be obsolete, and prefer to divide the Cenozoic into the Palaeogene (first three epochs) and Neogene (latest four epochs).AnswerYou are currently living in the Qaternary period. Is has not ended.

What is a consumer in biology?

A consumer is a living organism that cannot synthesize energy from the sun. Therefore, consumers get energy by eating other organisms. There are many levels of consumers that make up the food web. These can include primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers, and sometimes quaternary consumers. Primary consumers are herbivores (they can only consume autotrophs). As energy travels from autotrophs to quaternary consumers, much of the energy is used by organisms or (primarily) dissipated as heat. Therefore, there are less quaternary consumers than autotrophs because quaternary consumers cannot get as much energy.
