Effects of Change Quick Check
1. Which major environmental change is occurring today that could cause the next mass extinction?
*climate change
2. What is the difference between a mass extinction and a regular (background) extinction?
*Mass extinction involves many species over a short period of geologic time.
3. After the K-Pg mass extinction event, mammals were able to survive and proliferate. Which of the following factors contributed to this success the least?
*most mammals being nocturnal, allowing them to see better in the darkened conditions.
4. Fossils provide evidence that best helps scientists determine changes over time in
*the emergence or extinction of species.
5. Scientists use a variety of tools to learn about the history of the earth, evolution, environmental change, and its effects. Which type of evidence is most affected by human error (and thus less reliable)?
*mathematical and computer models
