<u>Answer:</u>

The "cretaceous-tertiary" mass extinction was apparently caused by a "meteorite" that struck the Yucatan Peninsula.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The Yucatan Peninsula lies between the present-day 'Gulf of Mexico' and the 'Carribean Sea'.
  • The meteorite that struck this peninsula about '66' million years ago was '10 to 15 kilometers' wide in size.
  • A huge crater was formed after the meteorite hit the Earth at the Yucatan Peninsula. This crater in today's date is known as the "Chicxulub impact crater".
