Answer:

Although the best-known cause of a mass extinction is the asteroid impact that killed off the non-avian dinosaurs, in fact, volcanic activity seems to have wreaked much more havoc on Earth's biota. Volcanic activity is implicated in at least four mass extinctions, while an asteroid is a suspect in just one.

Which planet is the moon thought to have come from originally?
Lisa [10]

The Moon is thought to have come from the Earth. In 1975, the giant impact hypothesis was put forward. This suggests that the Earth was hit by a planet about the size of Mars around the time of the formation of the solar system approximately 4.5 billion years ago, and the impact caused part of the outer layer of the Earth to spin off and form what is now the Moon.
