In the mass extinction event at the end of the Paleozoic era, some organisms that survived and thrived were primitive reptiles, amphibians, and some types of marine invertebrates. These survivors were able to adapt to the changing environment and ecological niches left vacant by the extinct species.
There were major asteroid impacts.

The Paleozoic Era is a geological era that lasted from about 541 million to 252 million years ago. It is known for the evolution and diversification of early life forms, including the rise of marine invertebrates, fish, amphibians, and reptiles. The end of the Paleozoic Era was marked by a series of extinction events, including the Permian-Triassic extinction, which wiped out about 90% of marine species.
Near the end of the Paleozoic Era, during the Permian Period, all the continental plates were slowly coming together to form the supercontinent known as Pangaea. This movement led to the collision and merging of the continental plates, resulting in the formation of one large landmass.
The Permian Extinction. Basically when many marine invertebrates died off. I am fcking 14 and I know this.
There were major asteroid impacts.
Yes. There have been several episodes of mass extinction. The worst was at the end of the Paleozoic era. The most famous came at the end of the Mesozoic, when the dinosaurs disappeared. Nature is cruel. Of course, some people say that species have not really become extinct, but merely evolved into different forms.
The area that best represents it
During the Paleozoic era, marine invertebrates such as trilobites, brachiopods, and ammonites dominated the Earth's oceans. On land, early plants like ferns and early vertebrates like fish were common. Near the end of the era, reptiles began to diversify and become more dominant.

The end of the Permian period marked the end of the Paleozoic Era and the beginning of the Mesozoic Era.
The permian period was the end of the paleozoic era.

The trilobites went extinct during the mass extinction at the end of the Permian period.
