How do scientists put fossils in order on the geologic time scale?
Location. Different layers of rock/soil tell a roughly chronological tale of the past, barring cataclysm. There are enough undisturbed sites worldwide that a mosaic can be discerned. Good question.
In what order are items placed on map index?
the r placed in alphabetical order
What is the correct order upward from earths surface?
Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, and Exosphere - layers of the atmosphere :)
What type of dating occurs when events are placed in their proper sequence or order without knowig their absolute age?
Relative age dating.
What are the characteristics of maps?
Maps of very large areas are known as small scale maps. In order to cover a large area they typically must be of a lower detail showing fewer features than maps at larger scale.
What is originally the geologic time scale placed on earth's rocks in order by what?
Relative age
What methods did geologists use when they first developedthe geologic time scale?
Scientists first developed the geologic time scale by studying rock layers and index fossils worldwide. With this info. (information if you forget!), scientists placed Earth's rocks in order by the relative age.
Why is the geologic time scale used the show earth's history?
becase scientists use it to place history in order
What is the geologic time scale in order from longest to shortest?
Just see which one is bigger you dumb fuc_k bitc_h
What is a scientific time scale?
The scientific time scale is also called the Geologic time scale. It has been created to describe the order of major events on Earth for the last 4.5 billion years.
How do you order the geologic time intervals to longest to shortest?
The order of the geologic time intervals is Eon, Era, Period, Epoch.
What denotes the divisions of the geologic time scale in correct order of decreasing lengths of time beginning with the longest time interval and ending with the shortest?
Eon, epoch, period, 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 list places the divisions of the geologic time scale in order from longest to shortest?
The order of geologic time from smallest to largest is Phanerozoic, Proterozoic, Archean and Hadean (Deep Time). These four periods are called Eons which can be further subdivided into Eras, Periods and Epochs. Most people are more familiar with the periods such as Cambrian, Permian, Triassic, Jurassic and. Cretaceous and many more to numerous to mention. To learn more, Google geologic time scale.
What are the major time intervals represented by geologic time scale?
The Geologic Time Scale is divided up by four major intervals. In order from Largest to smallest: Eons are the largest time frame covering hundreds of millions of years. Eons are divided into smaller time intervals known as Eras. Eras are subdivided into Periods. Periods are broken into finer subdivisions known as Epochs.

How long are eras?
The geologic time scale refers to measuring the layers of the earth's crust according to what time in history they refer to. In order, the eras from the Precambrian to the present are as follows: Neoarchean, Paleoarchean, Mesoarchean, Neoarchean, Paleoproterozoic, Mesoproterozoic, Neoproterozoic, Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic.
