This period is called holocene.
Cenozoic is not a major period of the geologic time scale. The scale is broken down into eras. Cenozoic, Mesozoic and Paleozoic are all part of the Phanerozic era.

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 Quaternary is the youngest era in the geologic time scale, which began around 2.6 million years ago and continues to the present day. It is characterized by the presence of ice ages and the evolution of humans.
The 4 eras are Cenozoic era, the mesozoic era, the paleozoic era, and the precambrian era.
precambrian times
Penguins first appeared during the Paleocene epoch, which is part of the Cenozoic era in the geologic time scale. This period lasted from about 66 to 56 million years ago.

A period is smaller than an era in the geologic time scale. It is further subdivided into epochs and ages.

geologic time scale
The two basic divisions following the Precambrian on the geologic time scale are the Paleozoic Era and the Mesozoic Era. These eras are further divided into periods, such as the Cambrian, Devonian, and Permian in the Paleozoic Era, and the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous in the Mesozoic Era.
