Answer

Brief Explanations:

The excerpt states that for two years no light reached Earth's surface and global temperatures plummeted, which implies that a large - amount of something (soot) kept sunlight from reaching the surface. There is no mention of original estimates being exaggerated, arctic ice causing dinosaur extinction, or coastal areas near the South Pole not being affected.

Answer:

C. tremendous amounts of soot kept sunlight from reaching Earth's surface.
