Answer. (b) Late Devonian.
Explanation: Late Devonian mass extinction occured around 375 million years ago. It took around 25 million years to ensue. The major causes for this extinction is asteriod impact, dissolved oxygen shortages, plate tectonics, sea level changes and climate change. It mostly hit marine life.

5) As you likely know, we are in the largest extinction event since the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K-T) mass extinction of 66 million years ago, in which 75% of all plant and animal species were eliminated. It is widely thought that the K-T mass extinction was associated with a ca. 10 km diameter meteor strike in the Gulf of Mexico near what is now the Yucatan peninsula. The on-going mass extinction event (the Holocene or (and this is my preferred term) Anthropocene...

Two firms are planning their marketing strategies. Firm K can earn $25 million in profits from strategy S if firm L responds with strategy P, and $7.5 million in profit from S if L responds with strategy Q. Firm K can follow strategy T, which returns $22 million if firm L responds with strategy P and $5 million if L responds with strategy Q. Firm L’s potential profits would be $10 million and $18 million from strategy P, depending on...

One of the main contributing factors to the extinction of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago was a large comet or asteroid that struck the earth. It threw up so much dust that the sun was blocked for a period of many months. Suppose the asteroid had a mass of 4.0x10e13 and hit the earth (mass = 6x10e24 kg) with an impact speed of 4.0x10e4 m/s. What would be the earth's recoil speed after such a collision? (Use a reference...

1. [12 points] Compelling evidence for the asteroid impact 65 million years ago which triggered the extinction of the dinosaurs was discovery of a thin Iridium-rich clay layer in sediments all around the world. A normal rock sample from the Earth's crust contains less than 1 nanogram per gram (or 1 part per billion) of Iridium, while the Iridium clay layer associated with the K-Pg impact contains about 3 parts per billion. (a) Assume the K-T impactor was a rocky...
