Question

There was no life in
A.Mesozoic period
B.Cambrian period
C.Palaeozoic period
D.Azoic period

Answer 1

The duration of the earth's history has been divided into five geological time spans called eras. Of these three more recent eras are further divided into smaller spans known as the periods which in turn split up into epochs.

Complete answer:
The eras classified asre cenozoic (era of modern life) , mesozoic (era of medieval life) , palaeozoic (era of ancient life), proterozoic (era of early life) and Archeozoic (era of dawn life)
Archeozoic era or period (3500 - 4600 years) origin of life, no recognizable fossils. Origin of solar system.Azoic Age, Azoic Era, Azoic Period and Azoic Eon were terms used before 1950 to describe the age of rocks formed before the appearance of life in the geologic sequence.
Azoic was used as early as 1846 by a geologist named Adams and gradually replaced the earlier term Primitive.

So, the correct answer is option D. Azoic period

Additional information:
The aspects of palaeontology which support evolution are : number and nature of fossils in the early rocks, distribution and nature of fossils in the successive strata, disparity between the present and the past forms of life, missing links and ancestries of individual animals
The rocks of early era eg. Proterozoic , contain scanty fossils than the rocks of later eras, and only simple marine invertebrates are represented in these fossils.

Note:
The age of our earth is near about 4500 million years, possibly even more. Life first appeared in water about 3700 million years ago. This is because life appeared in the sea in simple forms and was not as plentiful in the beginning as it became later.
