  • Hi here is your answer....................................................
  • An extinction event (also known as a mass extinction or biotic crisis) is a widespread and rapid decrease in the biodiversity on Earth.
  • Such an event is identified by a sharp change in the diversity and abundance of multicellular organisms.
  • It occurs when the rate of extinction increases with respect to the rate of speciation. Because most diversity and biomass on Earth is microbial, and thus difficult to measure,
  • recorded extinction events affect the easily observed, biologically complex component of the biosphere
  • rather than the total diversity and abundance of life.Hola here is your answer................................................................
