Solution

The correct option is A Jurassic period
Dinosaurs lived somewhere in the range of 230 and 65 million years back, in a period known as the Mesozoic Era. This was a huge number of years before the main present-day people, Homo sapiens, showed up. Researchers partition the Mesozoic Era into three periods: the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous.
So, the correct answer is 'Jurassic'
