Lower Permian Series

Target entity: Lower Permian Series
Context triple: [Cisuralian Epoch, alsoKnownAs, Lower Permian Series]

• A. Permian Period
  The Permian Period was the final period of the Paleozoic Era, marked by the diversification of reptiles and the largest mass extinction in Earth's history at its close.
• B. Guadalupian Epoch
  The Guadalupian Epoch is a middle subdivision of the Permian characterized by significant marine biodiversity followed by major ecological changes leading toward the end-Permian mass extinction.
• C. Siderian Period
  The Siderian Period is the earliest division of the Paleoproterozoic, marked by widespread banded iron formation deposition and the initial rise of atmospheric oxygen on Earth.
• D. Devonian Period
  The Devonian Period was a division of the Paleozoic Era characterized by the diversification of fish, the first significant colonization of land by plants and early tetrapods, and major reef-building in the oceans.
• E. Bathonian
  The Bathonian is a Middle Jurassic age and stage in the geologic timescale, known for widespread marine sedimentation and diverse fossil assemblages across Europe and beyond.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
