Answer 1

It ended about 251 million years ago with the biggest mass extinction in the history of Earth.

In the late Paleozoic, all the major continents were joined up in to one Super Continent called Pangea.

Land plants first arose during the the Paleozoic (Silurian or maybe Ordovician)

They gradually took off and most of Europes and North Americas coal (which powered the Industrial Revolution) comes from the late Paleozoic (Carboniferous)

Perhaps due to all those plants taking CO2 out of the atmosphere, there was a huge ice-age in the late Paleozoic (latest Carboniferous - early Permian) that hasn't been equalled since.

At the start of the Paleozoic, there was the "Cambrian Explosion" where many different types of fossils first appeared over ~20 million years. Most animal phyla first appeared in this 'explosion'. Vertebrates were tiny worm like things.

The first fish evolved in the Ordovician, then the first amphibians in the Devonian, and then the first reptiles in the Carboniferous. Some amphibians were huge predators - bigger than you and me. Reptiles only started to get big after the Carbonfierous ice-age.
