  • A. Frasnian–Famennian boundary
    The Frasnian–Famennian boundary marks a major Late Devonian mass extinction interval characterized by severe global environmental upheavals and widespread marine biodiversity loss.
  • B. Emsian–Eifelian boundary
    The Emsian–Eifelian boundary marks the internationally recognized transition between the Early and Middle Devonian periods in the geologic timescale.
  • C. Givetian–Frasnian boundary
    The Givetian–Frasnian boundary marks the internationally recognized stratigraphic transition between the Middle and Late Devonian periods, defined by specific fossil and sedimentary changes in the geologic record.
  • D. Permian Period
    The Permian Period was the final period of the Paleozoic Era, marked by the diversification of reptiles and the largest mass extinction in Earth's history at its close.
  • E. Carboniferous period
    The Carboniferous period was a Paleozoic era interval, roughly 359 to 299 million years ago, characterized by extensive swampy forests that formed vast coal deposits and by the diversification of early amphibians and insects.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
