The Cambrian Period was part of what era?

The Cambrian Period was from about 543 to 490 million years ago. It is the earliest period in the Paleozoic ("old life") Era. Until relatively recently paleontologists thought this marked the beginning of life. Primitive life is now know from the Pre-Cambrian Eon.


What organisms did the Cambrian explosion make?

First of all, the Cambrian Explosion is designated as a huge diversification event taking place between 543 to 506 MYA, when most of the phyla extant (living) today appeared. So the first chordates, shelled organisms and arthropods were seen in the Cambrian period. Therefore, complex bilateria dominated the Cambrian scene.


What animals went extinct during Cambrian Period?

There is limited evidence of animal extinctions during the Cambrian Period, but some organisms failed to evolve and adapt to changing environmental conditions. It is believed that certain early Cambrian species became extinct due to factors such as competition, predation, and environmental shifts. Examples include trilobites and some primitive arthropods that did not survive past the Cambrian Period.


Where did all the Cambrian animals live?

During the Cambrian period, animals primarily lived in the ocean. They inhabited various marine environments such as shallow seas, reef systems, and coastal regions. Some also lived in deeper waters, but the majority of Cambrian animals were marine organisms.


Are trillabites still alive?

No, trilobites are extinct marine arthropods that lived from the early Cambrian period to the end of the Permian period, around 520 to 250 million years ago. There are no living trilobites today.

What are the eras of the CAMBRIAN?

The Cambrian Period is divided into three eras: the Early Cambrian, Middle Cambrian, and Late Cambrian. These eras refer to different stages or time intervals within the Cambrian Period, which lasted from about 541 to 485 million years ago. Each era is characterized by different geological and biological events, including the diversification of early animal life.
