The first epoch of the Quaternary Period is the Pleistocene, which began around 2.6 million years ago and lasted until about 11,700 years ago. It is characterized by repeated glacial cycles, where large ice sheets advanced and retreated across much of the northern hemisphere. The Pleistocene saw significant changes in climate, the evolution of modern humans, and the extinction of many large mammals. Following the Pleistocene, the current epoch, the Holocene, began.

What represents units of geologic time in increasing order A. Era eon period epoch B. Eon era period epoch C. Epoch period era eon D. Epoch period eon era?
The correct order representing units of geologic time in increasing order is B. Eon, era, period, epoch. This hierarchy reflects the largest to smallest divisions of geologic time, with eons being the longest intervals and epochs being the shortest.
What is the era period and epoch in which homo sapiens first appeared?
Homo sapiens first appeared during the Quaternary period, specifically in the Middle Paleolithic epoch within the Pleistocene epoch.
