Target entity: Cenozoic Context triple: [Fort Union Formation, geologicTimeScale, Cenozoic]
-
A.
Cenozoic
chosen
The Cenozoic is the current geological era, beginning about 66 million years ago, characterized by the rise and diversification of mammals and birds and the formation of many modern mountain ranges and continents.
-
B.
Paleogene
The Paleogene is a geologic period that marks the beginning of the Cenozoic Era, characterized by the diversification of mammals and birds following the mass extinction that ended the age of dinosaurs.
-
C.
Neogene
The Neogene is a geologic period of the Cenozoic Era characterized by significant climatic cooling, the diversification of mammals and birds, and the emergence and evolution of early hominins.
-
D.
Quaternary period
The Quaternary period is the most recent division of geologic time, characterized by repeated ice ages, the evolution and global spread of modern humans, and significant climatic fluctuations over the last 2.6 million years.
-
E.
Paleocene
The Paleocene was an early Cenozoic epoch, roughly 66–56 million years ago, marked by the recovery of life after the dinosaur-extinction event and the rapid diversification of mammals.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
