What does comparing organisms in the fossil record provide evidence for?
Comparing organisms in the fossil record providesevidence that organisms have changed over time
What what is the Cambrian explosion?
The sudden increase in invertebrate fossil diversity
Why are there gaps in the fossil record particularly at the end of the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras?
Apparently, and with evidence, these were periods of global catastrophes (for life-forms) where massive numbers of organisms went extinct.

What happened during an event called Cambrian Explosion?
The sudden increase in invertebrate fossil diversity
The idea that new species occur suddenly in the fossil record followed by long periods of little change is called?
This is the idea called punctuated equilibria, by paleontologists Stephen Jay Gould and Niles Eldredge. It explains the patterns seen in the fossil record.

An energy-rich substance formed from the remains of organisms is?
Fossil Fuels =)
What are traces or remains of organisms that lived in the past?
Fossils are proof of organisms that lived long ago
What is a fossil habitat?
i think rock and sea is the habitat of fossil becaus these are the remains of organisms
How are fossil fuel and acid precipitation related?
Acid precipitation and fossil fuels are related because, acid rain can harm living organisms and fossil fuels are made from the remains form living organisms.
How does the punctuated equilibrium model of evolution states that evolution occurs rapidly?
Gradualism is the theory that evolution occurs slowly and consistently along periods of time. On the other hand, punctuated equilibrium is the theory that evolution does not occurs for long periods of time and then suddenly evolves rapidly in a small short period of time.
