How many periods are in each era?
there are different periods in each era. In the Cenozoic era, there are 2 periods, Quaternary and Tertiary. Mesozoic era has 3 periods, Cretaceous, Jurassic, and Triassic. Paleozoic has 7 periods, Permian, Carboniferous, Devonian, Silurian, Ordovician, and Cambrian. Precambrian is just the present, no time periods in it.
What era formed Gondwana and Laurasia?
The formation of Gondwana and Laurasia occurred during the Paleozoic era, specifically during the late Precambrian and early Paleozoic periods. Gondwana and Laurasia eventually merged to form the supercontinent Pangaea during the late Paleozoic era.
What are the 4 eras in earths history?
precambrian era, paleozoic era, mesozoics era, cenozoic era
Why are the time periods of the paleozoic and mesozoic subdivided into early middle and late instead of named epochs as they are in Cenozoic?
The time periods of the Paleozoic and Mesozoic are subdivided into early middle and late instead of named epochs as they are in Cenozoic periods is due to the basis of the occurrence of particular fossils. It is also based upon the absence or appearance of geological horizons.
Which describes the correct order of the geologic time scale from oldest to most recent?
ok im going to start off by saying this, the last answerer is stupid, and doesnt know what he is talking about. it goes from: PERIOD ERA EPOCH there you go ;)

What are the phanerozoic periods in order?
The Phanerozoic Eon is divided into three major eras: the Paleozoic Era, the Mesozoic Era, and the Cenozoic Era. The Paleozoic Era is further divided into six periods: Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Carboniferous, and Permian. The Mesozoic Era is divided into three periods: Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous. The Cenozoic Era is divided into two periods: Paleogene and Neogene.
Is the mississippian period in paleozoic era?
Yes. The Mississippian period is a part of the Paleozoic era, along with the Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Pennsylvanian, and Permian periods.
What era formed Gondwana and Laurasia?
The formation of Gondwana and Laurasia occurred during the Paleozoic era, specifically during the late Precambrian and early Paleozoic periods. Gondwana and Laurasia eventually merged to form the supercontinent Pangaea during the late Paleozoic era.

What periods of the Paleozoic era are not represented by the rock of the Grand Canyon?

What are the four geologic time scale eras from oldest to most recent?
The 4 eras are Cenozoic era, the mesozoic era, the paleozoic era, and the precambrian 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 are the names of the eras?
The Eras go like this: Precambrian Era Paleozoic Era Mesozoic Era Cenozoic Era Dinosaurs lived during the Mesozoic Era, and we live in the Cenozoic Era. Paleozoic means "ancient life" Mesozoic means "middle life" Cenozoic means "recent life" All eras end in a huge disaster
What is the 1st period in the Paleozoic Era?
The first period in the Paleozoic Era was the Cambrian.
