When was the rock wall built in relation to burial Y?

Why are geologic maps useful?

can predict hazards such as landslides, volcanoes

can help builders determine ground quality

mineral resources and groundwater quality

What caused the Grand Canyon to form?

weathering and erosion of the Colorado River

converging boundaries deep within the Earth's Crust

glaciers from the ice age carved a rift in the surface of the Earth

If a fossil is present in many rock layers and then suddenly disappears and is not found in younger layers, what can be determined

an extinction happened that wiped this organism out

the fossil evolved into something unrecognizable

magma or lava has solidified over the top of the rock containing the fossils causing them to be hidden

weathering and erosion smoothed the rocks and you cannot see the fossils

How have scientists determined the beginning and end of geologic eras?

by the life forms present during each era

by the # of mass extinctions in each era

Which description correctly describes the "relative age" of a layer of rock?

older rock is on the bottom and younger rock is on the top

the rock is 5.3 million years old

radioactive isotopes decay and give us an exact age of rock

all of these are relative age terms

What should be said about this picture?

it is inaccurate, dinosaurs and humans did not live in the same era

it is inaccurate because during this era there was an ice age
