How Many Mass Extinctions Have There Been?
To learn more about this topic, start your googling with these keywords:
Mass Extinction Event: a significant, global decrease in the diversity of life
"Big 5": The five biggest mass extinction events since the Cambrian explosion of Life 550 million years ago
Biodiversity Crisis: Like a mass extinction, a biodiversity crisis is a marked depletion in diversity in the fossil record. Some scientists prefer to call the late-Devonian extinction a "biodiversity crisis" because a lack of speciation contributed to the loss in diversity just as much as extinction did.
Diversity curve: A line chart that shows the diversity of life (usually by genera, but sometimes by species or family) over time
Lagerstatte: a deposit of sedimentary rock that contains a profound number of fossils, often with excellent preservation
Shareholder Quorum Subsampling: A statistical method that corrects for some of the biases in the fossil record, allowing scientists to generate more accurate diversity curves

From the creators of the popular science show with millions of YouTube subscribers comes the MinuteEarth podcast. Every episode of the show dives deep into a science question you might not even know you had - but once you hear the answer, you’ll want to share it with everyone you know. Our team of scientists digs into the research and breaks it down into a short, entertaining explanation jam-packed with science facts and terrible puns. We’ll tell the incredible story of how monkeys crossed the Atlantic ocean on natural rafts, and we’ll explain why it gets hotter the deeper you dig underground.
