Target entity: Quaternary Context triple: [Wisconsin glaciation, geologicTimeScaleSystem, Quaternary]
-
A.
Quaternary period
chosen
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.
-
B.
Cenozoic
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.
-
C.
Pleistocene epoch
The Pleistocene epoch was a geological time period characterized by repeated ice ages, widespread glaciation, and the evolution and global spread of modern humans.
-
D.
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.
-
E.
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.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
