According to the 2012 Geologic Time Scale the Permian Period of the Paleozoic Era lasted from about 298.9 million to 252.2 million years ago. It is the last (latest) period of the Paleozoic.
During the Permian period, which lasted from about 299 to 251 million years ago, there was an ozone layer forming in Earth's stratosphere. This layer started to develop during the Proterozoic eon, approximately 500 million years ago, and continued to evolve through the Paleozoic era, which includes the Permian period.
The mass extinction at the end of the Permian period, known as the Permian-Triassic extinction event, occurred around 252 million years ago. This event marked the transition from the Paleozoic Era to the Mesozoic Era, leading to the most significant loss of biodiversity in Earth's history, with approximately 90-96% of marine species and 70% of terrestrial vertebrate species going extinct. The aftermath of this extinction paved the way for the rise of the dinosaurs and other new life forms in the Triassic period.
Quaternary and it started 16 million years ago
The Cenozoic era was not a subdivision of the Mesozoic era. The Mesozoic era is subdivided into the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods.
The geologic time from 544 to 245 million years ago is known as the Paleozoic Era. It is divided into seven periods: Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Carboniferous, Permian, and the late Paleozoic. This era is characterized by significant developments in marine life, the emergence of terrestrial plants and animals, and major geological events such as the formation of supercontinents. The Paleozoic Era ended with the Permian-Triassic extinction event, the largest mass extinction in Earth's history.
Permian Period was from 299 million years ago to 250 million years ago
65 million years
The Permian period lasted from 290 to 248 million years ago and was the last period of the Paleozoic Era.
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.
65 million years
I believe it was during the Permian and Pennsylvanian eras.
Ther Permian was the last period of the Paleozoic era.
The permian period was the end of the paleozoic era.
The permian period was the end of the paleozoic era.
The Paleozoic Era has seven Periods beginning with the Cambrian Period. The last period was the Permian Period which was from 290 Million to 248 million years ago.
The Paleozoic Era lasted from about 540 million years ago to about 280 million years ago. It included the Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Carboniferous, and Permian Periods.
a long time ago :]
