Asteroid impact

Volcanic eruptions

Explanation:

Asteroid impact and volcanic eruptions are two common events that could lead to a mass extinction.

A mass extinction is an abrupt decrease in life on earth due some catastrophic event.

  • The collision of a large bolide on the surface of the earth is a catastrophe in itself.
  • The collision and its aftermath have destructive consequences on life.
  • The force of the collision can reverberate in form of vibration throughout the earth.
  • It can cause heating of the earth surface.
  • Volcanic eruptions can become global phenomenon that upsets the earth balance.
