The Carboniferous Period
The Pennsylvanian and Mississippian periods can be best explained by the carboniferous system which is divided into a number of sections. The division came from the North America stratigraphy.
Modern dating techniques have given a range of dates as to when the various geologic time periods have started, as they are listed below: Cenozoic Quaternary Holocene 10,000 years ago Estimated millions of years: Pleistocene 1.9 Tertiary Pliocene 6 Miocene 25 Oligocene 38 Eocene 55 Paleocene 65 Mesozoic Cretaceous 135 Jurassic 200 Triassic 250 Paleozoic Permian 285 Carboniferous (divided into 350 Mississippian and Pennsylvanian periods by some in the U.S.) Devonian 410 Silurian 425 Ordovician 500 Cambrian 570 Precambrian Proterozoic 2500 Archeozoic 3800 Azoic 4600
The columns are groups or families, and the rows are periods.
The life forms that lived during the Paleozoic are Permian, the Carboniferous, (both the Mississippian and the Pennsylvanian), the Devonian,the Silurian, the Ordovician, the Cambrian, and the Precambrian. The Paleozoic Era lasted from 570 to 225 Million Years Ago. Complex forms of life appear. During this 345 million year period, plants and animals underwent rapid evolution.The Paleozoic era lasted about 345 million years. It includes the Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Carboniferous, and Permian periods. Index fossils of the first half of the Paleozoic era are those of invertebrates, such as trilobites, graptolites, and crinoids. Remains of plants and such vertebrates as fish and reptiles make up the index fossils of the second half of this era.
rows. the vertical columns are called periods

Yes. The Mississippian period is a part of the Paleozoic era, along with the Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Pennsylvanian, and Permian periods.
Because they are!
The Pennsylvanian and Mississippian are sub divisions of the Carboniferous Period and in North America comprise marine limestones, while in Europe (where the Carboniferous was first described), the equivalent rocks form one more-or-less continuous sequence of lowland continental deposits. The Pennsylvanian and Mississippian are therefore worthy of separate description and are named after the US states in which they have their greatest outcrops.

Of, belonging to, or designating the era of geologic time that includes the Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Mississippian, Pennsylvanian, and Permian periods and is characterized by the appearance of marine invertebrates, primitive fishes, land plants, and primitive reptiles.
there are grouped in clomesand rows ad groups
based on the number of newtrons if anyone from shire oak school is reading this paige Atkins rote this LOLx.
A literary period is a period where literary work can be grouped together by what they share within a given time span. Literary periods can be differentiated by chronological groupings. Literary periods include Romanticism, Renaissance, and Victorian.
The next two letters are 'O' and 'C'. They are the first letters of the periods and systems in geologic time, from most recent to oldest. Quaternary, Tertiary, Cretaceous, Jurassic, Triassic, Permian, Pennsylvanian, Mississippian, Devonian, Silurian. The next two are Ordovician and Cambrian.
From youngest to oldest: 1. Permian 2. Pennsylvanian 3. Mississippian 4. Devonian 5. Silurian 6. Ordovician 7. Cambrian
Periods and series are used when grouping elements. Elements are listed in rows, as periods, on the periodic table so that each is grouped with others with similar properties.
