Question 30 1/1

The theory about why dinosaurs went extinct is that the Earth was struck by a large
asteroid/meteor measuring 10 kilometres in diameter.

Why would an asteroid measuring 5 metres not cause the same scale of damage to
life?

Asteroids are always larger than 5km in diameter

Because it would bounce off the Earth

Because it would hit an ocean

Because it would burn up in the Earth's atmosphere
