Although we can divide the history of the universe into many distinct “eras,” sometimes it’s useful just to have a broad perspective on what events occurred in the very early universe and what events occurred later. listed following are events that occurred either before or after the first five minutes in the history of the universe. match these events to the appropriate time period.

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Either Within the first five minutes or Sometime after the first five minutes." 

1. galaxies formed => Sometime after the first five minutes.
2. antielectrons (positrons) as common as electrons => Within the first five minutes
3. photons of cosmic microwave background released => Sometime after the first five minutes
4. temperature fell to 10^15 K => Within the first five minutes
5. strong force and electroweak force first became distinct => Within the first five minutes
6. carbon nuclei formed by fusion => Sometime after the first five minutes
7. inflation occurred => Within the first five minutes
8. stars formed => Sometime after the first five minutes
