The Earth's Natural History.
Eons:
The Hadean Eon
The Archaean Eon
The Proterozoic Eon
The Phanerozoic Eon
In Hadean Eon, the earth was being initially formed, 4.5 Billion years ago and the initial formation of the earth ended 4 Billion Years ago.
In this Eon, the earth gained its Shape, Size, Crust, its water, and a toxic and radioactive atmosphere, and its orbital path around the sun.
In the Archaean Eon, which lasted from 4 Billion years ago, to 2.5 Billion years ago the Earth would gain (from meteorites landing in the water) the Carbon and Proteins that it needs to create DNA, and therefore to evolve Single Celled Bacterial forms of life on earth.
The Earth's crust would for the first time since the meteorites carried water, break above the waterline to create the first land, which was in the form of Volcanic Islands, and the earth's crust would also for the first time ever, break into vast plates and the shifting of which would create the first Continent in the next Eon (the Proterozoic Eon).
In the Proterozoic Eon, which lasted from 2.5 Billion Years ago, to 542 Million years ago.
The Proterozoic Eon, began with the formation of Microscopic Single Celled bacteria, and the Earth's first continent, the Super Continent called Rodinia.
Rodinia of course would look more like mars, than earth today.
Its defining characteristic is the birth of Simple life on earth, and the bacteria would band together to form Stromatolites, which created took the CO2 out of the Atmosphere, and filled it with Oxygen.
The Super Continent, Rodinia would break apart, and expose rock formations, which also takes the CO2 out of the Atmosphere...
This would create an Ice age, that would be responsible for the end of the Proterozoic Eon, and give birth to the Eon that we currently live in today, called the Phanerozoic Eon.
That Ice Age is called "Snowball Earth".
541 Million years ago, the Phanerozoic (the age of complex life on earth) officially begins.
Within this time frame, there are three Eras, they are the Paleozoic, the Mesozoic, and the Cenozoic.
The Paleozoic era has 6 Periods which are as follows.
The Cambrian Period.
The Ordovician Period
The Silurian Period
The Devonian Period
The Carboniferous Period
The Permian Period.
The Paleozoic era is the Era of Early Life.
Plants and Animals only lived in the water from the Cambrian Period, until the Devonian Period.
This was because until the Silurian Period, the Sun blasted the land surface with radiation and it wasn't until the Devonian period that Animals had the biological equipment to walk on land.
The first animal to walk on land was in fact a Fish called Tiktaalik which first walked on land in the Devonian period of the Paleozoic Era of the Phanerozoic Eon.
All land Animals are linked to the first Tiktaalik to walk on land.
In the Paleozoic, the Tiktaalik (fish) would evolve into Amphibians, and the Amphibians into Reptiles.
Invertebrates would evolve into Arthropods, which would evolve into many groups, of which most famously include Insects, and certain other things like Spiders and Scorpions etc etc on land, and Crustaceans in Water.
The Reptiles of the Paleozoic Era would also evolve into the very first self regulated body temperature system, called a Synapsid, this group is the first precedent for the development of Mammals.
Plants also began their move onto land in the Devonian period.
In the Mesozoic Era, the Reptile survivors of the Permian Extinction would evolve into Dinosaurs, Pterosaurs, Marine Reptiles, and Mammaliaformes, which are the earliest true ancestor to Mammals.
The Triassic Period began with a New Supercontinent called Pangaea.
The Mesozoic Era has three Periods.
The Triassic
The Jurassic
The Cretaceous
Theropod Dinosaurs themselves are Ancestral to modern Birds, and would become more, and more, and more Birdlike throughout the Mesozoic Era.
Mammaliaformes would evolve into true mammals in their modern form.
Mammals would stop laying eggs like Reptiles and Dinosaurs and Birds, and start giving birth to Live Young.
The End of the Mesozoic Era at the end of the Maastrichtian stage of the Late Cretaceous Epoch of the Cretaceous Period, of the Phanerozoic Eon, was a Asteroid the size of Mount Everest, slamming into the Gulf of Mexico, creating the Chixulub Crater on the Yucatan Peninsula, wiping out the Dinosaurs, the Pterosaurs, and many of the land and marine Reptiles.
The Cenozoic Era has 3 periods.
The Paleogene Period.
The Neogene Period.
The Quaternary Period.
The Cenozoic Era would be characterized by the Enlargement, Diversification, and Specialization of Mammals
The First primate called Adaptiformes would first appear in the Paleocene Epoch, which is the first epoch of the Paleogene Period, immediately succeeding the Cretaceous period (the last period of the Mesozoic Era).
Those Adaptiformes would evolve into Monkeys and Apes and Lemurs, etc etc...
Which are ancestral to Humans.
Why does every Westernized person on earth period.. understand this, BESIDES American Republicans ?
