Jurassic time period
Yes, dinosaurs did evolve from reptiles. They are part of a group called archosaurs, which also includes modern birds and crocodiles. Dinosaurs evolved from a group of reptiles called archosauriforms during the Triassic period.
They ARE reptiles.
They evolved from amphibians during the Carboniferous Period.
Pliosaurus, a genus of large marine reptiles from the Jurassic period, did not evolve into any specific modern species. Instead, it is part of the broader group known as plesiosaurs, which were diverse marine reptiles that existed during the Mesozoic era. While pliosaurus itself did not have direct descendants, its lineage contributes to our understanding of marine reptile evolution. Today, its closest living relatives are birds, which share a common ancestor with reptiles.
no, the reptiles evolved from fish
No, humans did not evolve from reptiles. Both humans and reptiles share a common ancestor from millions of years ago, but they evolved along separate paths.
no
The Mesozoic era is often referred to as the "Age of Reptiles" due to the dominance of reptiles, including dinosaurs, during this time period.
No. Dinosaurs evolved from reptiles. Birds evolved from dinosaurs.
The earliest known reptiles originated around 340-335 million years ago during the Carboniferous period.
Reptiles evolved from amphibians
The age of reptiles, also known as the Mesozoic Era, occurred during the time period from about 252 million years ago to 66 million years ago. It was characterized by the dominance of reptiles, including dinosaurs, pterosaurs, and marine reptiles.
