Mammals reached a weight of about 13 pounds within 100,000 years of the extinction event. By 300,000 years after their extinction, they reached a weight of 55 pounds (25 kg), becoming the first purely herbivorous mammalian species. Some mammals weighed more than 110 pounds by 700,000 years after the asteroid.

In the early Paleogene, which was the time after the Cretaceous, it appears from the bones of extinct mammals that they became more terrestrial. According to Professor Janis, the increase in understory vegetation is to blame. "Bushes and shrubs beneath the tree canopy were now a more suitable habitat for these small mammals," she claimed.

Why do you think invasive species are more of a problem in human altered biomes (anthromes) than they are in a biome that has no
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

invasive species are a problem both in anthropogenically altered and natural environments

Explanation:

An invasive species can be defined as a non-native species introduced into a new environment which then becomes abundant. Only in the US, it is believed that there are approximately 4,000 invasive species (some examples include the feral pigs, grey squirrels, European rabbits, etc.). In general, invasive species have a negative impact on the ecosystem, especially by displacing native species and thereby altering the trophic chain. In anthropogenically altered environments (anthromes), human beings are considered to be an invasive species.
