1 answer

All of these factors—global warming, asteroids striking the Earth, and global cooling—can contribute to mass extinctions. Each of these events can create severe changes in the environment, leading to habitat loss, changes in climate, and disruptions to ecosystems. Therefore, the correct answer would be all of these.
