sea urchin, L. variegatus, has a much lower

life expectancy
in the wild.

Although the new analysis adds to evidence
suggesting a massive tectonic shift caused the
seas to rise more than half a billion years ago, Dalziel said more research is needed to determine whether this new chain of paleogeographic events can truly explain the sudden rise of multicellular
life in the fossil record.
A paper by Ian Dalziel of The University of Texas at Austin's Jackson School of Geosciences, published
in the November issue of Geology, a journal of the Geological Society of America,
suggests a major tectonic event may have triggered the rise
in sea level and other environmental changes that accompanied the apparent burst of
life.
In contrast, Dalziel suggests the development of a deep oceanic gateway between the Pacific and Iapetus (ancestral Atlantic) oceans isolated Laurentia in the early Cambrian, a geographic makeover that immediately preceded the global sea level rise and apparent explosion of lif
