Did early mammals cause the extinction of dinosaurs?

No. By the time the dinosaurs went extinct mammals still played a relatively minor role ecologically. It is generally accepted that an asteroid or comet struck the earth, causing ecosystems to collapse worldwide and resulting the extinction of many groups of animals including the dinosaurs.


What is one type of catastrophic change that can cause a mass extinction?

One type of catastrophic change that can cause a mass extinction is an asteroid impact. When a large asteroid collides with the Earth, it can release massive amounts of energy, cause widespread destruction, trigger tsunamis and wildfires, and create a global "impact winter" due to the release of dust and debris into the atmosphere. Such an event is believed to have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago.


Did every ancient animal create a fossil?

No. Most animals don't become dinosaurs because they decay or are eaten before they are buried.


How did the extinction affect other members of the habitat?

The extinction of a species can have cascading effects on other members of the habitat. It can disrupt food chains and ecological interactions, leading to imbalances and potential population declines for other species that relied on the extinct species as a food source or for some other ecological role. The loss of one species can create a ripple effect, impacting the overall biodiversity and stability of the ecosystem.


What are the names of asteroids that have hit earth?

While we know that asteroids have hit the Earth in the distant past, they were never named. To the extent that we have names for them, they are named for the craters they create where they hit, such as the Chixulub event that killed off the dinosaurs 65 million years ago.

What was the purpose of God's creation of dinosaurs?

None, because he didn't create them.Dinosaurs were a product of evolution from fish developing into amphibians, then reptiles and then dinosaurs.Eventually the dinosaurs became extinct or evolved for survival after the mass extinction event.Evolution is a scientifically proven event, whereas there is no proof for the tales of the bible. If the word of the bible is true because it's written in a book, then by that logic Harry Potter is true too.


On what day did god create dinosaurs?

What is synergistic diversification?

Synergistic diversification occurs when a company expands into a new market or industry that complements its existing business operations. This strategy aims to leverage existing capabilities, resources, or expertise to create synergies and enhance overall performance. The goal is to minimize risk by diversifying while also taking advantage of potential growth opportunities.


How do you create new dinosaurs in Jurassic Park Operation Genesis?

Simply put, you can't. There is no cheat that allows you to make male dinosaurs. All the dinosaurs on JPOG game are female. But it says on the box that you can breed and care for the dinosaurs so you can get male & female dinos.
