The event that marks the division of the Paleozoic and Mesozoic era is the breaking up of the Pangaea
The Permian-Triassic (P-Tr) Extinction Event is widely recognised as the greatest extinction event on Earth. It is also known as the "Great Dieing".It occurred 251 million years ago marking the end of the Permian Period and the start of the Triassic Period.It also marks the end of the Paleozoic Era and the start of the Mesozoic Era. Estimates have suggested that 96% of marine species and 70% percent of land vertebrate species became extinct. It is also the only known mass extinction of insect with 56% of insect families and 83% of insect genera becoming extinct.Little is known of the cause of the mass extinction but theories range from meteorite impacts, to volcanism, to sea level fluctuations.
The Triassic was from about 225 million to 190 million years ago. It is the first period of the Mesozoic ("middle life") Era.The Triassic Period is most commonly believed to have begun 251 million years ago and lasted until 199.6 million years ago.

The mass extinction event at the end of the Cretaceous Period marks the beginning of the Cenozoic Era. There are multiple hypotheses as to what caused or contributed to this extinction; current thought is that the Chicxulub meteorite event, combined with the already occurring volcanic trap eruptions in present day India provided the one-two punch that lead to the extinction. Regardless, the iridium rich KT boundary at the end of the Cretaceous marks the end of the reign of the dinosaur and the emergence of a great diversity in other species.
The layer of iridium deposited all over Earth is known as the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary, which marks the end of the Cretaceous period and the beginning of the Paleogene period. This layer is believed to have been deposited around 66 million years ago when a massive asteroid impact caused widespread extinctions, including the dinosaurs.
That would be 251 million years ago. The end of the Paleozoic era marks the beginning of the Mesozoic. The last period of the Paleozoic era was the Permian, and the first period of the Mesozoic era was the Triassic; hence the extinction event (the biggest extinction event in the earth's history), the Permian-Triassic extinction, which defines the border between the eras.

The end of the Mesozoic Era is marked by the mass extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs, known as the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event. This event was likely caused by a combination of factors, including a meteorite impact and volcanic activity, and led to significant changes in Earth's ecosystems.
The correct order from oldest to most recent is Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Carboniferous, Permian, Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous. The Cambrian period marks the beginning of the Paleozoic Era, while the Cretaceous period is the last of the Mesozoic Era. The Permian and Triassic periods follow the Paleozoic and precede the Mesozoic, with the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods occurring afterward.
The Permian-Triassic boundary is coincident with the largest mass extinction event in Earth's history, known as the Permian-Triassic extinction event or the Great Dying. This event occurred approximately 252 million years ago and is characterized by the loss of around 90% of marine species and a significant number of terrestrial species. It marks the transition from the Paleozoic Era to the Mesozoic Era, leading to dramatic changes in ecosystems and the evolution of life on Earth.
Earth's time periods are primarily broken down into three eras: the Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic. The Paleozoic Era is characterized by the emergence of complex life forms, including fish and amphibians. The Mesozoic Era, known as the age of reptiles, saw the rise and dominance of dinosaurs. The Cenozoic Era, often referred to as the age of mammals, marks the period after the dinosaurs' extinction and features the development of mammals and birds, leading to the present day.

It is second division. Second division starts from 45 % marks.
The calendar is intended to mark the number of years since the death of King Herod the Great. The Roman abbot Dionysus Exiguus devised the new Christian calendar in 533. He knew that it was impossible to say when Jesus was born, but he knew, or thought he knew, when Herod died. So, he chose to begin his Christian calendar on the year of Herod's death, and he based this on the reign of the Roman emperor Augustus. Unaware that Augustus only adopted that name four years after his reign began, going by his birth name of Octavius until then, Exiguus commenced his calendar just 4 years too late.
The start of the Paleozoic Era was marked by a huge diversification of life known as the Cambrian Explosion. Many genre of life emerged during the Cambrian Period. Although plants and animals were around in the Pre-Cambrian it was not until after the extinction event that immediately proceeded the Paleozoic that many advanced forms of life evolved such as multi-celled plants and advanced animals such as the arthropods.
