Why do some people argue that the Cenozoic era should not be called the "Age of Mammals"?

History

xeze [42]4 years ago
7 0
Many people argue that the Cenozoic era should not be called the "Age of Mammals" because there were many other species, such as birds and insects, and many plants were as numerous as mammals were at the time. So they argue the name of the era giving reasons such as these - why should it be named after mammals when there were other animals and birds and plants roaming the Earth as much as they did?

The photo shows deforested land in Washington. Excessive logging such as this a concern for the state because it can damage farm
kherson [118]

Answer:

lead to erosion and less rainfall

Explanation:

Trees avoid land erosion because they act as stoppage by clinging to soil. Lands with many trees/forests face very little erosion while deforested land tend to erode very rapidly.

Heavily forested areas like Western Washington also tend to receive a significant amount of rainfall, because trees make the air more humid by evaporating water from their leaves.

Thus, we can see that deforestation in Washington would lead to higher rates of soil erosion, and less rainfall.

According to Smith, what has resulted from division of labor
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Specialized knowledge

Saves time

Technological Innovation

Explanation:

Smith came up with certain explanations for the improvement in production by the division of labor. First, the division of labor produces expert knowledge about a specific task. Second, it saves labor time for the laborer. By concentrating on one task, rather than moving from one task to another, the professional is able to improve his time and thus increase production. Finally, the amount of time workers spend on a specific task contributes to creativity in the techniques and methods used in the activity, and thus to technical advancement that eventually promotes the task.
