Why did many planets die at the end of the mesozoic?
Scientists believe the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event, or the plants dying at the end of the Mesozoic Era, was caused by a massive asteroid/comet impact. The theory suggests that the impact had catastrophic effects on the environment, including an impact winter, which prevented the plants from carrying out photosynthesis.

What is The Oldest Period in the Mesozoic Era?
Statistical analysis of the fossil records indicates that somewhere around 35% of all species disappeared at the end of the Cretaceous Era (there is considerable margin for error in that figure).
What era and period occurred in 251 to 65 million years ago?
An era is a span of time, so there was no era at that time. It was, however, the end of one era and the beginning of another. More specifically it was the end of the Mesozoic and the beginning of the Cenozoic.
What happened in the Paleozoic Era?
Basically, a lot of species began to evolve. Unfortunetly, a mass extinction took place near the end of the era and destroyed as much as 95% of the ocean life.
What happened at the end of the mesozoic era but did not happen at the end of paleozoic era?
There were major asteroid impacts.
What happen at the end of the mesozoic era but did not happen at the end of paleozoic era?
There were major asteroid impacts.
What happened at the end of the mesozoic era but not at the end of the Paleozoic era?
There were major asteroid impacts.
What does the end of the paleozoic and the mesozoic have in common?
Mass extinction
Overall how does the climate of the Cenozoic era compare to the climate near the end of the Mesozoic era?
The Mesozoic era was tropical and the Paleozoic was dry.
What is the era before the Mesozoic Era?
The Paleozoic era was from 540 million years ago to about 245 million years ago. After that came the Mesozoic era, and that lasted from the end of the Paleozoic to 65 million years ago, when the earth entered the Cenozoic era.
How long ago did the 'paleozoic' era begin?
That would be 251 million years ago. The end of the Paleozoic era marks the beginning of the Mesozoic. The last period of the Paleozoic era was the Permian, and the first period of the Mesozoic era was the Triassic; hence the extinction event (the biggest extinction event in the earth's history), the Permian-Triassic extinction, which defines the border between the eras.
What are the names of the eras?
The Eras go like this: Precambrian Era Paleozoic Era Mesozoic Era Cenozoic Era Dinosaurs lived during the Mesozoic Era, and we live in the Cenozoic Era. Paleozoic means "ancient life" Mesozoic means "middle life" Cenozoic means "recent life" All eras end in a huge disaster
What event happened at the end of the Paleozoic era?
A large mass extinction took place at the end
What happen to all of the continental plates near the end of the Paleozoic Era?
At the end of the Paleozoic Era all the plates combined together to form a supercontinent called Pangea.
Why are there gaps in the fossil record particularly at the end of the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras?
Apparently, and with evidence, these were periods of global catastrophes (for life-forms) where massive numbers of organisms went extinct.
What happened at the end of both the mesozoic and palezoic eras?
There were major asteroid impacts. #fuckschool #imheretohelp
