What is the largest geological time division?
The Precambrian.
How is the geologic time scale divided?
The geological time scale is divided into: Eons (Such as the Proterozoic and the Phanerozoic) THEN Eras (Such as the Mesozoic and the Cenozoic) THEN Periods (Such as the Cretaceous and the Quaternary) THEN Series, alternatively Epoch (Such as the Pleistocene and the Holocene) THEN Stage (Such as the Campanian and the Tarantian)
What is Divided into eons and eras and periods and epochs?
Time. The game.
What are the first three eons that make up geologic history?
There are 4 Eons not 3, these are :Phanerozoic 540 million years ago to today.Proterozoic 2.5 billion to 540 million years agoArcheozoic 3.9 to 2.5 billion years agoHadean 4.6 to 3.9 billion years ago
What eon do people live in today?
5th Edit: The ancient Greeks referred to an eon as being an eternity, so by that definition, we would be in the one and only eon, but in geology, an eon amounts to about 1 billion years, making the Earth be 4.6 eons old, so, the answer would either be the first eon, or the 5th eon. Depends on how you look at it.

Why do you think scientists recognize many more changes in the Phanerozoic eon than in the other eons?
because it is one of the newer eons so they can study it still

When was the Precambrian Supereon and how long did it last?
The Precambrian is the largest span of time in Earth's history before the current Phanerozoic Eon, and is a Supereon divided into several eons of the geologic time scale. It spans from the formation of Earth about 4.6 billion years ago (Ga) to the beginning of the Cambrian Period, about 541.0 ± 1.0 million years ago (Ma), when hard-shelled creatures first appeared in abundance.

Geologic time is divided into priods epochs and what else?
Eras. I think eons , too.
How is history divided?
Geologic history is divided, from largest amount of time to smallest amount of time, by eons, eras, periods, and epochs.
