Appearance of flowering plants
Why is the Quaternary considered the most important age for the emergence of human activity?
Because dinosaurs reached the peak of dominance
Because mammals first appeared
Because there are signs of human life and its activities developed
Because marine reptiles dominated the oceans
Because of the end of giant animal life
