Answer:

The correct answer is option B, that is, their predators had been killed off by the Permian extinction.

Explanation:

The avian dinosaurs and the mammals were small creatures, living under the pump of the dinosaurs that reign the world, however, also were ceasing the further enhancement in the development and the size of these species. At the termination of the Cretaceous era, due to the colliding of an asteroid on the Earth, all the dinosaurs got wiped out from the Earth's surface, with the only remaining one of the species of dinosaurs were the small avian species.  

Due to the opening of lots of niches, the avian dinosaurs and the mammals briskly began to diversify, evolve, and become much bigger in size. The mammals won the race for supremacy and they became the most prevailing species on the Earth.

You are operating a powerboat at night. Your red sidelight must be visible to boats approaching from which direction(s)?
Degger [83]
I believe the answer is head-on and port (left). The side lights are usually visible to vessels approaching from the front or the side. The red light usually indicates a vessel's port (left) side while the green light indicates a vessel's starboard (right) side. These lights ensure that there is safety at night as the vessels navigate.

A fish has a head 9 inches long. the tail is equal to the size of the head plus one half the size of the body. the body is the s
Katena32 [7]

So let’s substitute that into the third equation and solve for B. B = H + T B = 9 + (9 + 1/2B) B = 18 + 1/2B Then subtract 1/2B from both sides: 1/2B = 18 Multiply both sides by two: B = 36 Now we know the value of B and the value of H. Substitute this back into the second equation and solve for T. T = H + 1/2B T = 9 + (1/2)36 T = 9 + 18 = 27 Step 4: Plug all values of H, T, and B into the final equation. Total length of fish = H + T + B Total length of fish = 9 +27 + 36 = 72.
