A. Pterosaurs went extinct about 65-66 million years ago.

B. Pterosaurs are reptiles that are close cousins of dinosaurs, the first animals after insects to evolve powered flight.

C. Both A & B

D. None of these

Explanation:

Azhdarchid pterosaurs, the giant reptiles that flew in the skies nearly 65 million years ago, had necks longer than that of a giraffe (on average a giraffe’s neck is about 6 feet long). Pterosaurs are reptiles that are close cousins of dinosaurs, the first animals after insects to evolve powered flight. Pterosaurs went extinct about 65-66 million years ago (end of the Cretaceous period).
