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.
Most periods of the Paleozoic Era are named for?
The periods of the Paleozoic Era are named for the locations where the rock formations that represent these time periods were first studied and defined. Examples include the Cambrian period (named after Cambria, the Latin name for Wales) and the Devonian period (named after Devonshire, England).
What are the 4 eras in earths history?
precambrian era, paleozoic era, mesozoics era, cenozoic era
After precambrian time what are the two basic divisions of the geologic time scale?
The two basic divisions following the Precambrian on the geologic time scale are the Paleozoic Era and the Mesozoic Era. These eras are further divided into periods, such as the Cambrian, Devonian, and Permian in the Paleozoic Era, and the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous in the Mesozoic Era.
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 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 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 :)

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 were some of the periods included in the paleozoic era?
The periods are... 1. Cambrian 2. Ordovician 3. Silurian 4. Devonian 5. Carboniferous 6. Permian -You owe me big time!
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 ;)
