which statement is true about the evolution of maximum body mass of mammals after the cretaceous-paleogene mass extinction?

Biology

Marrrta [24]1 year ago

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.

The PUPIL is the hole in the MIDDLE of the IRIS of the eye, through which light passes to be focused on the RETINA.

ACCOMMODATION is the change in the adjustment of the eye lens to help focus light ray.

RETINA helps to receive light rays that the lens has focused. It contains two cells: rods and cones

Fovea Centralis is at the center of the retina responsible for sharp and accurate vision, also it is where cones cells cluster.
