Answer 1

There are only a few supervolcanoes in the world and one of them is in Yellowstose park in the Usa. The Yellowstone Caldera last erupted nearly 600,000 years ago and just before it did, there were large earthquakes in the area. The thick black ash that fell from the huge explosion killed most of the plant life, and many species found it difficult to survive. It also blocked out sunlight and there was a drastic drop in temperature, making it feel like winter across the globe. If scientist are correct, and Yellowstone's supervolcano is ready to wake up, then humans may become extinct too.
