This theory holds that the universe is unchanging‚ it has no beginning and no end. 2. Big Bang Theory – presupposes that the vast universe grew out of something where all matter and energy were compressed to infinite density and heated to trillions of degrees (a beginning which was an immensely small particle of high-density

our earth and solar system‚ it is difficult to comprehend its scale at the surface. A mass extinction is classified as a massive dying of animal species in a short geologic window. In the above analogy that would mean having anywhere from 70% to 90% of creature species die in a fraction of a second. Mass extinctions are driven by a compounding of events. For example‚ the extinction that defined the beginning of the Triassic was called quite literally: The Great Dying. During the Great dying an estimated

the first and upper most layer of the Earth. There is Continental Crust which sits on top of Oceanic Crust. This layer is made frequently from granite rocks and is solid. Continental Crust is approximately 32km. Below the Continental Crust is Oceanic Crust. It is about 8km. This part of the Crust is made from basalt rocks. The Crust is most of lithosphere and is the coolest layer by far. Mantle is like silly putty consistency. It is the largest layer of Earth sitting under the Crust. It is made
