Demise of the Permian- Triassic Period

The end of the Triassic - Triassic A great extinction of large species kills the dinosaurs is well known. However, almost 188 million years ago on the end of their destruction almost all life on Earth was destroyed. [1] Meteorites have been believed for a long time as a cause of mass extinction, and Professor Asish Basu believes that he may have clues to the universe. Causes of extinction during the Permian - Triassic. Triassic was when the earth was divided into huge terrestrial: Pangea and water.

In this video clip from Evolution: "Extinction!", The geologist Peter Ward shows the rock formations of the Permian and Triassic. While the Triassic layer is rich in fossil and fossil animal traces, the Triassic has little fossil, it means that mass extinction has occurred 250 million years before the end of the twentieth century It suggests. One of the most dramatic and mysterious events in life history, about 250 million years ago, the so-called "death" of animals and plants, continues to attract and confuse scientists. Among the extinctions of about five large species recorded by Earth's fossils, this time the end of the Triassic and the beginning of the Triassic were the most devastating.

During the past 550 million years the Earth experienced five mass extinctions; the Ordovician, Devonian, Permanent, Triassic and Cretaceous last times are now the sixth. The most serious annihilation of these species occurred about 225 million years ago and shows the geological boundary (P - Tr boundary) between the Permian and the Triassic. Extinction of the large species of the Permanent occurs in 1 to 3 pulses and deprives almost all life on Earth. The high temperature during the Permian has rapidly diversified the living things. The occurrence of terrestrial plant life is an important food source for many terrestrial animals and diversifies the land. One such plant is the extinct genus (Glossopteris), which has a tongue-shaped leaf. Since insects are closely related to plant formation, increased life span of plants contributes to an increase in the life span of insects.
