At the Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary, significant events such as volcanic activity, climate change, and possibly asteroid impact led to the extinction of certain species, including dinosaurs. These events caused widespread environmental disruptions, leading to the decline and eventual extinction of many species.
A subsequent boundary is a political boundary that is established after significant human settlement has occurred, often ignoring the cultural and ethnic boundaries of the existing population. These boundaries can lead to disputes and conflicts between different groups.
There have been five major extinction events during Earth's history. These events are known as the Ordovician–Silurian, Late Devonian, Permian–Triassic, Triassic–Jurassic, and Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction events. Each event resulted in a significant loss of biodiversity and had profound impacts on the evolution of life on Earth.

Yes, Turkey is prone to earthquakes due to its location on the boundary of the Eurasian and African tectonic plates. Major earthquakes have occurred in Turkey in the past, with the most recent significant one being the Izmit earthquake in 1999.
This epoch is known as the Paleogene epoch, which follows the Cretaceous period and precedes the Neogene period. During this time, significant geological and climatic changes occurred, including the extinction of dinosaurs and the rise of mammals.
the answer to the question is extinction
The mass extinction of dinosaurs occurred around 66 million years ago during the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary.
Which mass extinction? There have been five such events. The first one, the Ordovician-Silurian extinction event occurred before the Devonian. The Late Devonian event occurred during the Devonian. All other mass extinctions occurred after the Devonian.
At the K-T boundary, a mass extinction event occurred leading to the extinction of dinosaurs and many other species. Fossil records and sedimentary layers show evidence of a sudden increase in iridium levels, suggesting an extraterrestrial impact as the cause. Additionally, there is evidence of widespread wildfires and climate disruption following the impact.
The moon crashing into the planet would be an extinction level event. The extinction of the dinosaurs occurred long before we were born.
No, child, I was not a witness to the Permian Extinction. The Permian extinction event is the only known mass extinction of insects. The Permian extinction event occurred about 252 million years ago.
A subsequent boundary is a political boundary that is established after significant human settlement has occurred, often ignoring the cultural and ethnic boundaries of the existing population. These boundaries can lead to disputes and conflicts between different groups.
Significant changes in the composition of the atmosphere and changes in global average temperatures are environmental changes that have caused mass extinction events in the past. For example the oxygenation event that occurred approximately 2.4 billion years ago is thought to have wiped out a large proportion of the pre-existing anaerobic organisms. The K-T boundary (65.5 million years ago) marks the point when it is thought that significant extinction of the dinosaurs occurred which is thought to have been caused by global cooling brought about in part by very large scale volcanism (a large igneous province) and the impact of an asteroid which threw large amounts of debris into the atmosphere causing a reduction of incident radiation from the sun.
No, the breakup of Pangaea occurred long before the mass extinction of dinosaurs. The main factor believed to have caused dinosaur extinction is an asteroid impact that occurred around 66 million years ago.
The fastest extinction of life on Earth occurred 65 million years ago when over 80% of the earth's organisms went extinct. This occurred in a relatively short 2-5 million years,
The Cretaceous / Tertiary boundary (KT) occurred 65 million years ago and extinctions of most dinosaurs was probably due to a meteorite impact in the Yucutan peninsular of Mexico known as the Chixulub crater.
