The units that divide the geologic time scale are Eons, Eras, Periods, and Epochs. Eons are the biggest, Eras are the second biggest and so on and so forth. So it goes Eons, Eras, Periods, and then Epochs. I know this because i just took a test on it in science so i know its right.
The basic units of the geologic time scale eras and periods.

Geologic Time scale
on geologic maps, geologic units are distinguished by color. UNITS OF SIMILAR ARE ASSIGNED COLOR IN THE SAME COLOR FAMILY.

Geologic units of similar ages are typically shown on a geologic map using the same color or pattern to represent them. This helps to visually differentiate between different units and understand their distribution across a region. Stratigraphic relationships and relative ages may also be indicated to show how these units are connected in terms of geologic time.
The geologic time scale.
Cenozoic is not a major period of the geologic time scale. The scale is broken down into eras. Cenozoic, Mesozoic and Paleozoic are all part of the Phanerozic era.
