Most periods of the Paleozoic Era are named for?
Most of the periods of the Paleozoic Era are named after the areas in which examples of the rocks of those periods were first described or are plentiful.
How many periods are in each era?
there are different periods in each era. In the Cenozoic era, there are 2 periods, Quaternary and Tertiary. Mesozoic era has 3 periods, Cretaceous, Jurassic, and Triassic. Paleozoic has 7 periods, Permian, Carboniferous, Devonian, Silurian, Ordovician, and Cambrian. Precambrian is just the present, no time periods in it.
How many major landmasses existed during the the Paleozoic Era?
If by major landmasses is meaning continents, then there are 7 major continents.
Which describes the correct order of the geologic time scale from oldest to most recent?
ok im going to start off by saying this, the last answerer is stupid, and doesnt know what he is talking about. it goes from: PERIOD ERA EPOCH there you go ;)
This is the second era in geologic time?
Paleozoic

Is the mississippian period in paleozoic era?
Yes. The Mississippian period is a part of the Paleozoic era, along with the Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Pennsylvanian, and Permian periods.
The second era in geological time?
Warm, shallow seas covered most of Earth's surface near the end of the Paleozoic Era.
What is a division on the geologic time scale?
The divisions of the geologic time scale are divided into four eras. from earliest to closer to the present is the Precambrian, Paleozoic, Mesozoic, Cenozoic. During these time periods, there were several major evolutionary events. Most commonly known are the dinosaurs and humans. Hope that helped :)
What were some of the periods included in the paleozoic era?
The periods are... 1. Cambrian 2. Ordovician 3. Silurian 4. Devonian 5. Carboniferous 6. Permian -You owe me big time!
