• Ocean water rises as it warms and falls as it cools to move the plates

• Hot melted rock rises and cooler rock sinks in

  the mantle, forming currents that move the plates

• Melted rock rises and falls, and the currents move the mantle while the crust remains in place

• The crust moves in a current to drive the motion of water in the oceans

.

• Layer B isnt shown due to the absence of index fossils

• Location 4 held index fossils similar to the other locations

• to organize and sequence events by eras and periods in the different divisions of time and to serve as a timeline

• to show the evolution of life forms and to model how those life forms behaved and what they ate

• to organize and sequence events in the history

  of Earth and to serve as a model for a vast amount

  of time covered

• the determine the relative ages of rocks and when and how they formed to create a timeline of their development
