Question

Identify the correct order from the given options.

• A. Palaeozoic $\to$ Archaeozoic $\to$ Coenozoic
• B. Archaeozoic $\to$ Palaeozoic $\to$ Proterozoic
• C. Palaeozoic $\to$ Mesozoic $\to$ Coenozoic
• D. Mesozoic $\to$ Archaeozoic $\to$ Proterozoic

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Palaeozoic $\to$ Mesozoic $\to$ Coenozoic

This time span is isolated into three geologic periods. Following the Paleozoic, the Mesozoic expanded about 186 million years, from 251.902 to 66 million years prior when the Cenozoic Era started.

So, the correct option is 'Palaeozoic → Mesozoic → Cenozoic'.
