because there was an explosion in ecological diversity among animals
The sudden increase in invertebrate fossil diversity
The Cambrian Explosion wasn't a literal explosion. Instead, it was a span of time when organisms evolved into an immense number of new forms, and biodiversity increased greatly, reaching its modern level. The Cambrian Explosion occurred between 530 and 450 million years ago.
The Cambrian period is also called the "Cambrian explosion" due to the sudden appearance and diversification of many major animal groups.
No, the Cambrian explosion was not a volcanic eruption. It was a period of rapid diversification of multicellular lifeforms that occurred around 541 million years ago, marking the beginning of the Paleozoic era.
The Cambrian Period is called the Cambrian Explosion because it is characterized by a sudden increase in the diversity of multicellular life forms, including the appearance of many major groups of organisms. This period saw the rapid evolution and proliferation of complex marine life forms, marking a significant point in the history of life on Earth.
The Ediacarian fauna are from the Cambrian Explosion. The Cambrian Explosion occurred in the Cambrian period. The Cambrian period was part of the Paleozoic era.
Cambrian.
Any time you see an animal. The Cambrian explosion was when the different kinds of animals developed - all the different animal phylums. So if you see an insect on a mammal you see the Cambrian explosion.
Referred to as the "Cambrian explosion", most major animal groups first appeared in the fossil record beginning about 530 million years ago.

Single celled organisms.
I assume you are referring to the Cambrian Explosion... It was a period on Earth many millions of years ago after heavy bombardment from asteroids. A huge "explosion" of species and life came to form on Earth.
