Below is the transcribed text for inclusion on an educational website: ### Question **16. How many mass extinctions has the Earth had so far?** ### Options A. 1 B. 2 C. 5 D. 10 The question aims to test students' knowledge about Earth's history, specifically the number of major extinction events that have impacted life on our planet. Mass extinctions are significant because they represent periods where a substantial proportion of species on Earth were wiped out in a relatively short geological period. Understanding these events is crucial for learning about the evolution of life, the resilience of ecosystems, and factors that can lead to large-scale environmental changes.
