According to the passage, which period are we living in?
Answer: B
According to the passage we are formally living in the Holocene period, though it may be fitting to call the last 70,000 years the Anthropocene. Miocene, Pleistocene and Pliocene are earlier epochs that the passage lists as examples used to classify the history of the planet. The passage says that scientists use epochs such as the Pleistocene, Pliocene and Miocene to classify the history of the planet, and that we are formally living in the Holocene, though the last 70,000 years could be called the Anthropocene, so the Holocene is the period the passage names.
