C.
Deccan Traps volcanism
Deccan Traps volcanism refers to one of Earth’s largest known volcanic flood basalt events in western India, linked to mass extinction and major climatic changes near the end of the Cretaceous period.
-
D.
Jurassic
Jurassic is a geologic period of the Mesozoic Era known for its abundant dinosaurs and the breakup of the supercontinent Pangaea.
-
