Is an earthquake weather related geologic or caused by humans?
Earthquakes are caused by geologic forces.
The series of changes that describes how geologic forces cause rock to change from one type to another is known as?
the rock cycle
Compare geologic time with geologic column?
a geologic time scale has eras, made up of periods, epochs, etc. hope this helps! :D
A major difference between Catastrophism and Uniformitarianism is?
Uniformitarianism is a principle that geologic processes that occurred in the past can be explained by current geologic processes. So, it is the idea that the same geologic processes that sa and pic just for fun
How do rocks that form beneath the surface of the earth get to the sueface?
Through uplift from geologic forces such as plate movements. Overlying material is eroded away once the rocks rise above sea level.
Is an earthquake weather related geologic or caused by humans?
Earthquakes are caused by geologic forces.
Is a volcano caused by weather?
No. Volcanoes are the result of geologic forces.
What geologic forces could destroy a fossil?
magma, ice, and water
The forces acting on the Earth today are the same forces that shaped the Earth throughout its history?
This is the geologic principle of uniformitarianism.
Are geologic forces still acting on earth today?
Yes. But how do u know?
Huttons observations of the geologic forces around him allowed him to infer that these same geologic process had operated in the past this idea is now referred to as?
the principle of uniformitarianism
Do volcanoes have weather geological or human causes?
Volcanoes are driven entirely by geologic forces.
Is a tidal wave part of meteorology?
No. A tsunami is triggered by geologic rather than meteorological forces.
The series of changes that describes how geologic forces cause rock to change from one type to another is known as?
the rock cycle
What are exogenous forces?
Exogenous forces are those natural forces that are "destructive" (reductive) and wear down surface formations on the planet. These forces include geologic disruptions (earthquakes, landslides) and general weathering effects.
What geogogic process can change any type of rock?
The most powerful geologic forces are air and water; they change mountain ranges into soil and silt.
Diffrenciate geologic time with geologic column?
Geologic column is an ordered arrangement of rock layers that is based on the relative age of the rocks. Geologic time is the time IN the geologic column.
