What is a weakness of relative dating?
Does not always reflect the true sequence of events in time
Does a thunderstorm have a weather or geologic cause?
Thunderstorms are weather events.
WHAT ARE THE GEOLOGIC processes events that will occur because of this plate movement?
What are geologic processes/vents that will occur because of this plate movement?
What were the major geologic events of devonian period?
there was plate tectonic movement
Are hurricanes weather related or geologic in nature?
Hurricanes are weather events.
The dating process that places geologic events in proper sequence is?
Relative dating is the process that places geologic events in the proper sequence.
The process that places geologic events in proper time sequence is referred to as?
relative dating
Radiometric dating means placing events in their proper sequence?
False
Describe the sequence of geologic events represented by an angular unconformity?
sediment made into rock, tilting, erosion, sediment into rock
What type of dating occurs when events are placed in their proper sequence or order without knowig their absolute age?
Relative age dating.
What is a weakness of relative dating?
Does not always reflect the true sequence of events in time
How do you determine the sequence of events in rock layers?
By the law of superposition: Oldest at the bottom and youngest at the top.
The sequence of events in the process of protein synthesis is usually?
DNA to RNA to protein
What is the process of placing events in the sequence?
I think you mean chronological order or sequencing.
Radiocarbon dating is used to date?
No. radio carbon dating is only efficient for the fossils of plants or animals. As pottery is an abiotic substance its age cannot be determined by carbon dating
What does relative dating mean?
Relative dating is a method used in geology to determine the age of rock layers or fossils in relation to each other. It does not provide specific numerical ages, but instead establishes a sequence of events based on the principles of superposition, original horizontality, and cross-cutting relationships. This method helps scientists understand the relative timing of geologic events.
What do you call events that occur in a sequence?
You call them 'sequence of events'.
