Nearly 90 percent of Earth’s entire
history, stretching from the
formation of Earth to the
beginning of this era. Autotrophic
prokaryotes enriched the
atmosphere with oxygen.
The ancestors of most major
animal groups diversified in what
scientists call the Cambrian
explosion. Life in the oceans
continued to evolve at the end of
the Cambrian period. Fish, land
plants, and insects appeared
during the Ordovician and Silurian
periods. Fish, land plants, and
insects appeared during the
Ordovician and Silurian periods. A
mass extinction ended the
Paleozoic era at the end of the
Permian period.
Mammals and dinosaurs first
appeared late
in the Triassic period, and
flowering plants
evolved from no flowering plants.
Birds evolved from a group of
predatory dinosaurs in the middle
of the Jurassic period. About 65
million years ago, a meteorite
struck Earth.
Mammals became the dominant
land animals. After the mass
extinction at the end of the
Mesozoic era, mammals of all kinds
began to diversify.
