What else can I help you with?
When did flowering plants evolve?
In the Mesozoic Era, during the cretaceous period
Where did plants and animals live during the Cretaceous period?
The plants lived around and among the inland sea
The earliest known flowering plants date to the?
The earliest known flowering plants date to the early Cretaceous period, around 140 million years ago. This period marked the rapid diversification and evolution of flowering plants.
What seed bearing flowering plants first appeared during the Cretaceous?
Angiosperms, or flowering plants, first appeared during the early Cretaceous period around 130 million years ago. This group of seed bearing plants diversified rapidly and became the dominant type of plant by the end of the Cretaceous period.
When was the first flower to be planted?
Flowering plants arrived in the Cretaceous period of the Mesozoic Era.
Did flowers first appear in the Cambrian period?
No. Answer No, flowering plants (angiosperms) first appeared (as far as we know) in the Cretaceous period.
How was the cretaceous period different from the Jurassic period?
The Cretaceous period followed the Jurassic period and lasted from about 145 million to 66 million years ago. In the Cretaceous period, flowering plants became more dominant, dinosaurs continued to diversify, and large marine reptiles like mosasaurs thrived. However, the end of the Cretaceous period marked by a mass extinction event where dinosaurs and many other species went extinct.
What is the name of the last period of the mesozoic era when chalk deposits formed and plants appeared?
cretaceous
What plants lived in the cretaceous time period?
figs, planes, magnolias, conifers, araucaria, and bennettitales
What kind of food can you eat in the cretaceous period?
In the Cretaceous Period, small things like Ginkgos could be edible, and common things you could find along elongated coastlines, such as shellfish, and even small breeds of fish. (I am not positive they were in the Cretaceous Period) You could also eat small ferns, as they could be weak if they were young, and provide a tasty tea when boiled.
What happened after the Jurassic period?
There was a decline in many species of plants and animals and new forms evolved, ushering in the Cretaceous Period with flowering plants and hardwood trees, along with the first true birds.
What appeared near the beginning of the Cretaceous period?
The most notable group of organisms that evolved at the beginning of the Cretaceous are the flowering plants, or angiosperms. Today, these are the majority of plants on Earth. All fruit bearing plants and grasses are angiosperms. At the same time as these evolved, new insects evolved that pollinated the flowers. Additionally, birds evolved either during the late Jurassic or the early Cretaceous.
