Impact event

Iridium could have been brought to the surface by these explosive events, forming the high levels we now see in the sediment layer. In addition, there is evidence of lava flow, covering 200,000 square miles at depths of more than 6,500 feet in the Deccan region of India (“What killed the dinosaurs?” n.d. para. 4). Fractured crystals also seem to support this hypothesis. These crystals show patterns of fracturing which are caused by impacts or explosions (“What killed the dinosaurs?” n.d. para.…

Task 2.1 Task 2.3 Impact of Communication on Events ‘Communication is the dynamic process of transmitting and receiving meaningful information’ (Thompson 2008 p. 56). Organisational communication encompasses not only that between individuals, and between groups within organisations, but also the interchange between the organisation and the environment like manager and there sub ordinates, peers etc. for the purpose of communicating information regarding management function like planning,…

could have happened, and of course all hypotheses would be subject to analysis. Asteroid impact theory. The impact of a 10 km+ asteroid would blow a huge rock and vapor above the atmosphere, this would form a large dust cloud that would settle out slowly through the atmosphere during a few weeks, months, or even years. The impact and cloud would spread material that would cover the entire world.…

readers like myself, it will enhance their mind with more knowledge than they ever thought, and it is such an interesting book that they are going to want to read it everywhere they go. As reported in this book, “While no one can predict uncertain events with certainty, we can at least understand certainty itself. “ (5) Probability is not just the likelihood of something happening; it provides a connection to the true, genuine, randomness that is part of astounding…

advantages (Benton et al. 2014). These factors enabled the dinosaurs to undergo adaptive radiation following the Permo-Triassic mass extinction. The Cretaceous/ Tertiary (K/T) boundary is associated with the mass extinction of dinosaurs, a geological event that dates back approximately 65 million years (Brisman et al. 2001). The extinction of dinosaurs is commonly attributed to a large bolide impacting the Earth and a massive series of volcanic eruptions at the end of the Cretaceous period…

shows that there are five major extinction events and the fifth extinction is the one that killed every dinosaur on the Earth surface as a result of an asteroid. Earth is now in the eve of sixth extinction as humanity has become the asteroid that would drive species to extinction even quickly than they should be. Marine species especially cannot run from this reality and are going to extinct even faster and it is all caused by either direct or indirect impacts of the human activity. Hunting and…

During recent studies, scientists have discovered prevailing evidence which support the idea that a major meteorite impact may not have been the sole cause of the mass extinction involving the dinosaurs 66 million years ago. Researchers have discovered an array of huge volcanic eruptions in india 66 million years ago which released large amounts of gases into the atmosphere, which drastically altered the climate. This new theory does not in fact eliminate the theory of a massive meteorite…

In definition, probability refers to the measure of the likelihood of an event happening. The probability for any event occurring falls between 1 percent and 100 percent thus meaning that the interpreted meaning of a probability equals the subject meaning held of the probability (Grinstead et al, 1997). However, it is worth noting that the application of probability or assigning of probability to the events in the effort to gratifying the axioms of probability follows some rules or basics…

THEIR ARE MANY MANY THEORIES ON WHY THE DINOSAURS BECAME EXTINCT THE CAUSE OF THIS MASS EXTINCTION VARIES WIDELY. Some of those theories are that Years ago an asteroid crashed onto Earth’s surface. Mountains formed within minutes. In America, a tsunami hit covering plants and animals, under piles of rubble. Debrie was scattered, The planet was broken down and it stayed that way for years. But the most clear explanation to why the dinosaurs rapidly died out with the Mose scientific evedence is…

Mesozoic-Cenozoic period. 65 million years ago a meteorite roughly 10 km across hit the earth’s surface, and the impact would be a catalyst to the extinction of 75% of the species living on earth at the time, including the dinosaurs. The impact of the meteorite would have instantly killed any organisms within proximity. But a majority of destruction happened after the impact. The impact blew enough dust, and debris into the atmosphere…
