seconda era geologica del Fanerozoico
AI overview
The Mesozoic Era is a major division of Earth's history that includes the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous Periods and is famous as the age of dinosaurs and other large reptiles, along with specific plant types, a hot climate, and the breaking apart of the supercontinent Pangaea. It matters because it represents the middle chapter of complex life on Earth, falling between the Paleozoic and Cenozoic Eras, and shows how dramatically our planet's life forms and geography have changed over deep time.
