At the end of the Triassic period 200 million years ago, there was a mass-extinction event that caused the extinction of more than half of all living species. It was this extinction event that allowed dinosaurs to become the dominant species for the next 145 million years. We do not know exactly what happened that eliminated so many species in a relatively short period of time, but there are several possible explanations.
The article states that the reason of eliminated so many species in the the Triassic period 200 million years ago has a several possible explanation, and provide the three reasons for support. However, the professor explains that the theory may seems to not only be plausible, but is it not a good explanation to such prodigious extinction, and refutes each the author's reasons.
First, the reading states that the mass extinction seems to be due to profound effect of The destruction of coastal and shallow-ocean species making by the fluctuating of sea levels. the professor refutes this point by stating that being believed fluctuation of see level has occurred at the end of the Triassic by scientist notwithstanding, animals and plants accustomed to this situation in gradual level; Nonetheless, this happening requires more sudden activity at 200 million years ago.
Second, the article claims that the SO2 released by the volcanoes caused to lower in global temperature and killed off many species. However, the professor contends that global cooling because of the so2 was in short time, and the raining could prevent to accumulation of the so2 in the atmosphere; although, the So2 is present in atmosphere now, it might not to be a reason to extinction.
Third, the reading avers that the plants and many animal died; thereby, asteroid impact at the end of the triassic period and blocking sunlight thereof. However, the professor opposed this points by declaring that dating of crater shown this Asteroids and impact occurred in 12 million earlier that those extinction time.
