Answer:

Volcanic activity/meteorite impact

Step-by-step explanation:

While some scientists believe that a meteorite impact caused the end-Mesozoic extinction. Some believed the extinction occurred due to massive volcanism and that much of the evidence put forward to support the meteorite impact theory could have been due to volcanic activity instead.
