answ2. No. For several reasons. When there is a major extinction event, there is not necessarily any carry-through of evolution of species.
Where there is a physical interruption to a column, for example by erosion, there may be a 'regional unconformity'.
But there are enough of the pieces of the puzzle left for the concept to be very useful, even if no perfect example can be found.
By analogy, the Rosetta Stone is incomplete - would we consider that evidence that it was never complete.
There is a valuable saying "Absence of evidence does not prove evidence of absence."
A1. No. The idea of the geologic column is a hypothetical one. There is no proof that it exists, so nowhere like this on Earth.
The geological column is the theoretical classification system for the minerals and fossils that make up the Earth's crust
No. If you go to that place the layers might be mixed up in different layers so that the formation does not fit the pattern shown in pictures of the rocks/artifacts.
An ideal sequence of rock layers that contains all the known fossils and rock.
Eon - Phanerozoic (most distant) Era - Cenozoic Period - Quaternary Epoch - Holocene (most recent)
The geologic column is the result of the core sample showing layers of artifacts and material. Since some of these can be carbon dated, a relative time period can be established.
In the geological column , scientists have learned that rocks are stacked in layers. The oldest fossils are located in the deepest layers, a vertical timeline.
A mineral is a naturally occurring substance formed through geological processes that has a characteristic chemical composition, a highly ordered atomic structure and specific physical properties.For more details check the links on the left of this column.
No, because there are natural event occuring at all times so even if there was a geoloogical column it would have eroded away or been distroyed
The geological column is an abstract, and ideal. What it really signifies is the mechanism of superposition, the fact that through geological times, newer layers are formed on top of older layers. The geological column can be used as a guide for reconstructing the geological history of a formation, but one should take care: geological processes, like all of nature, are messy, and geological strate can be inverted or skewed, so that newer strata may be beside or even below older strata. The inferred age of a geological stratum may be used to assist in dating fossils, and thereby aid in constructing histories for particular lineages. But in itself, this geological notion has little to do with biological evolution.
the geologic column is used for identifying the layers in a rock sequence.
a geologic time scale has eras, made up of periods, epochs, etc. hope this helps! :D

Put the detainees in close-column formation.
A squad leader assumes a position three steps to the left and centered on his squad when the squad drills as a separate unit in a column formation. A squad has two distinct formations, the line and the column.
Together with the drum, to train the troops to stand in line, column, on parade, marching in formation while maintaining the pace and cadence, getting the highest possible precision in the formation and movement of the units even on the battlefield, at least during the early stage of fighting.
No. It only means that it is difficult to use that geological column to date that particular fossil which has managed to survive subsequent erosion of successive layers. Trees are generally quite long and because of this they may often be stretched through several layers.
In itself, it isn't. The geological column is a principle used in the preliminary dating of geological features relative to other features. Palaeontology uses estimates gained through geological dating to establish timeframes for the emergence of particular forms in the fossil record. These timeframes in themselves also aren't evidence for common descent, in themselves. What is evidence for common descent is that derived forms are almost always found in geological features that are younger than the layers the oldest basal forms are found in. For example: no primates before mammals; no apes before primates; no humans before apes; and so on.
