Scientists believe two major events resulted in this extinction: glaciation and falling sea levels.The majority of the animal life lived in the ocean. Trilobites, brachiopods, and graptolites died off in large numbers but interestingly, this did not lead to any major species changes during the next era.]]> 2018-05-11 21:54:23 UTC https://padlet.com/nandy_pimentel/yzzuh88vxjam/wish/260090168 nandy_pimentel https://padlet.com/nandy_pimentel/yzzuh88vxjam/wish/260090351 Estimates propose that around 75% of species were lost around 364 million years ago. Information is unclear as to whether the late Devonian extinction was one single major event or spread over hundreds of thousands of years. Trilobites, which survived the Ordovician-Silurian extinction due to their hard exoskeletons, were nearly exterminated during this extinction.]]> 2018-05-11 21:56:45 UTC https://padlet.com/nandy_pimentel/yzzuh88vxjam/wish/260090351 nandy_pimentel https://padlet.com/nandy_pimentel/yzzuh88vxjam/wish/260090608 This mass extinction, which occurred 251 million years ago, is considered the worst in all history because around 96% of species were lost. Ancient coral species were completely lost. “The Great Dying” was caused by an enormous volcanic eruption that filled the air with carbon dioxide which fed different kinds of bacteria that began emitting large amounts of methane. The Earth warmed, and the oceans became acidic. Life today descended from the 4% of surviving species. After this event, marine life developed a complexity not seen before and snails, urchins, and crabs emerged as new species.]]> 2018-05-11 21:59:56 UTC https://padlet.com/nandy_pimentel/yzzuh88vxjam/wish/260090608 nandy_pimentel https://padlet.com/nandy_pimentel/yzzuh88vxjam/wish/260090744 The Triassic-Jurassic extinction happened between 199 million and 214 million years ago and as in other mass extinctions, it is believed there were several phases of species loss. The blame has been placed on an asteroid impact, climate change, and flood basalt eruptions. During the beginning of this era, mammals outnumbered dinosaurs. By the end, dinosaurs’ ancestors (archosaurs) reigned the earth’s surface. This extinction laid the path that allowed for the evolution of dinosaurs which later existed for around 135 million years.]]> 2018-05-11 22:01:59 UTC https://padlet.com/nandy_pimentel/yzzuh88vxjam/wish/260090744 nandy_pimentel https://padlet.com/nandy_pimentel/yzzuh88vxjam/wish/260090826 Perhaps the most well-known of the Big 5, the end of the Cretaceous-Paleogene brought on the extinction of dinosaurs. A combination of volcanic activity, asteroid impact, and climate change effectively ended 76% of life on earth 65 million years ago. This extinction period allowed for the evolution of mammals on land and sharks in the sea.]]> 2018-05-11 22:03:09 UTC https://padlet.com/nandy_pimentel/yzzuh88vxjam/wish/260090826
