Global climates were much warmer in the Mesozoic Era. Carbon dioxide was likely many times higher than today contributing to a "greenhouse" planet causing changes in the types of vegetation.

What is one way that vegetation has changed since the time of the dinosaurs?

Since the time of the dinosaurs, one significant change in vegetation is the rise of flowering plants, or angiosperms. During the Mesozoic era, the dominant plant groups were cycads, ferns, and conifers, but by the Cretaceous period, flowering plants began to diversify and eventually became the dominant form of vegetation on Earth. This shift significantly altered ecosystems and influenced the evolution of herbivorous and pollinating animals. The emergence of flowering plants also led to more complex plant-animal interactions, shaping modern biodiversity.

What statements describes why much of the primary vegetation of the US does not exist today?

One reason is human activity, such as deforestation for agriculture and urban development. Another reason is natural disturbances like wildfires, which can eliminate large areas of vegetation.
