No. Some processes such as landslides, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions are sudden events.

What is a major geologic event?
earthquakes, volcanoes, desert
What type of rock can only form on or near earths surface?
Sedimentary rocks are the type of rocks that can only form on or very near Earth's surface. Sedimentary rocks form from weathering processes that occur on Earth's surface.
How does geologic uplift contribute to the phosphorus cycle?
only when rock layers are exposed through a process called geologic uplift will phosphorus be made available, and then the cycle o weathering can begin again.
Which process or processes return carbon to the atmosphere?
Cellular respiration only
Why can weathering can only. Occur on the surface of the earth?
Weathering can only occur on the surface of the earth because the weather is only present on the surface of the earth. The surface of the earth refers to any exposed area.
Do physical changes occur in natural processes only?
No. Many physical processes occur by artificial means. Boiling water on a stove or freezing it in a freezer is one common example.
How do the laws that govern geological processes change through time?
The natural laws do not change with time and they have. Even the extremely rare event (e.g. meteor impacts) is part of the many geologic processes governed by these laws. The only thing that changes is th RATE of these processes.
Does Earthquakes have weather geologic or humans cause?
only geologic
Difference between aerobic and anaerobic?
Aerobic respiration is performing something with oxygen. Anaerobic is only performing the same action but without and oxygen.
When is the only time this life process can take place?
Life processes can take place when an organism is alive and functioning. Without living organisms, life processes cannot occur.
Do volcanic eruptions and earthquakes occur ONLY at the boundaries?
No. Volcanoes can be found at hot spots away from plate boundaries. These volcanoes can produce earthquakes. Earthquakes can also occur at areas of ancient geologic activty such as failed rifts and can occur as a result fo glacier retreating.
What is a major geologic event?
earthquakes, volcanoes, desert
Two threads are waiting for keyboard input one in each process Does this problem ever occur in single threaded processes?
Single-threaded processes only have one thread of execution -- therefore it would not be possible to have two processes waiting for input at the same time.
When do respiration and photosynthesis take place?
Yes, the processes occur constantly and simultaneously.
What type of rock can only form on or near earths surface?
Sedimentary rocks are the type of rocks that can only form on or very near Earth's surface. Sedimentary rocks form from weathering processes that occur on Earth's surface.
Which are ways in which the diagram accurately represents geologic time?
I, II, and III only.
How do paleontologist use trilobite as index fossil for various geologic periods?
Trilobites were rapidly evolving and widespread marine organisms that spanned a number of geologic time periods. Certain types of trilobites only appeared in specific segments of geologic time; therefore, when one of these trilobites is found, you can be certain that the rock layer it is found in is of a certain geologic age.
