Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The Devonian period represents the fourth period of the Paleozoic era, ranging from about 420 million years to 360 million years back. This period represents the age of fishes because a variety of fish species were present and also during this time, the plants that colonized on the land areas started undergoing evolution giving rise to the formation of gymnosperms.

By the end of this period, about 360 million years ago, massive and rapid volcanic eruptions took place, that released an extensively large amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This eventually lead to a mass extinction event, eliminating nearly 80% of the total living species present on earth.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Which star has an temperature of 10,000 K and a Luminosity of 10^2
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

i think White Dwarf

Explanation:

We are given that the star has a temperature of 10,000 K and a luminosity of 10^2. According to the HR diagram, a star with the surface temperature of 10,000 K would be a white dwarf and if the star were on the main sequence, then it would have a luminosity nearly 100 times more than that of the sun. However since the actual luminosity is 10,000 times smaller than this, this star must be a white dwarf since it has 10,000 K and 100 aka 10^2 luminosity
