An event that happened would be the ending of the Ice age and the beginning of mammals and plants, or even the formations of the major landforms we have today. Such as the beginning of the Alps, or the Himalayas. The pollen and fruit count even increased through the Cenozoic Era.
The Paleozoic era was from 540 million years ago to about 245 million years ago. After that came the Mesozoic era, and that lasted from the end of the Paleozoic to 65 million years ago, when the earth entered the Cenozoic era.
Abundant and diverse fossils first appeared in the Cambrian era, although there is fossil evidence throughout much of the Precambrian.
No. The dinosaurs rose in the Mesozoic era. The end of the Mesozoic era was also the end of the dinosaurs. The era following is the Cenozoic, which we are still in today.
The major subdivisions are the Precambrian, Palaeozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic, which are subdivided into Archean and Proterozoic (Precambrian), Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Carboniferous (or Missisipian and Pennsylvanian in the US) and Permian (Palaeozoic), Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous (Mesozoic) and Tertiary and Quaternary (Cenozoic).

The Cenozoic.
Currently we are in the Cenozoic era.
Currently we are in the Cenozoic era.
Cenozoic hope I helped
Cenozoic
Cenozoic Era
is the cenozoic era the most modest of all
The divisions of the geologic time scale are divided into four eras. from earliest to closer to the present is the Precambrian, Paleozoic, Mesozoic, Cenozoic. During these time periods, there were several major evolutionary events. Most commonly known are the dinosaurs and humans. Hope that helped :)
The 3 eras of geologic time is Palezozoic era, Mesozoic era, and Cecozoic era
Humans appeared during the Quaternary period of the Cenozoic era, which began around 2.6 million years ago. This era is marked by the development of modern human species and the emergence of Homo sapiens.
The Cenozoic Era. This began 65.5 million years ago.
