thick continental glaciers advanced and retreated over parts of Europe and North America causeing it to be cold.sorry for the crappy spelling ;)

What was the earths climate like in the atmosphere during quaternary time period?
there was no quarternary period, so make up a climate for your made up time period.
What was the climate like during the quaternary time?
It was cold in the Quaternary time period

How did earths environment change from the tertiary period to the quarternary period?
During the transition from the Tertiary to the Quaternary period, Earth's environment underwent significant changes, characterized by a cooling climate and the development of ice ages. The Tertiary was marked by a warm climate with lush forests and diverse flora and fauna, while the Quaternary saw the expansion of polar ice caps and glaciers, leading to drier conditions and more pronounced seasonal changes. This shift also influenced the evolution and migration of species, as many adapted to colder environments or faced extinction. The Quaternary period continues to be defined by repeated glacial and interglacial cycles that shape current ecosystems.
When did the Quaternary Period begin and end?
We are in the Quaternary period now (Holocene Epoch). So it hasn't ended yet.
What are main things travelers might like to see in the quaternary period?
Travelers might be interested in visiting locations with impressive examples of quaternary geology, such as glaciers, moraines, and fossil sites. They may also enjoy exploring areas that showcase the impact of quaternary climate change, such as ice age landscapes or remnants of ancient lakes and rivers. Additionally, visiting national parks or natural reserves that preserve quaternary ecosystems and species would offer insights into the period's biodiversity.
What Eon was the Quaternary Period in?
Phanerozoic.
What geolgic period happend almost 7 8 of earths history?
one of these i am not sure witch one though the Quaternary Period the Precambrian time the Phanerozoic Eon the Carboniferous Period
What happend before the quaternary period that impacted life in the quaternary period?
The Pleistocene epoch, part of the quaternary period, was influenced by the preceding Pliocene epoch. The Pliocene saw the formation of the Isthmus of Panama, connecting North and South America, which affected ocean currents, climate patterns, and species migrations during the Quaternary period. Additionally, tectonic movements and mountain-building events in the late Cenozoic era created new habitats and influenced evolutionary processes that further impacted life in the Quaternary period.
What lifeforms were flourished in the Quaternary period?
The plant life in the quaternary period is basically the exact same plants we have now. Some plants might have changed because of climate change and time but, they are still similar. Contrary to what some people say, the quaternary period is not just the time of the ice age. The quaternary period is the entire time since homosapiens first appeared. Plants in the ice age were hardy and survived harsh enviroments. However, there were still some areas not as cold where plants thrived.
