What are the two basic units of the geologic time scale?
EonEraPeriodEpoch! :)
A place where two geologic units meet is called?
A contact or boundary.
What is geologic eras?
Cenozoic Era
The four types of geologic contacts traditionally shown on geologic maps?
The four types of geologic contacts shown on geologic maps are faults, igneous intrusions, unconformities, and sedimentary contacts. These contacts represent boundaries between different rock units with distinct characteristics and histories. Geologists use these contacts to understand the geologic history of an area and to interpret the relationships between different rock formations.
What is the next smaller division of geologic time after era?
After an era, the next smallest division of time would be an epoch. An epoch is equal to around 10,000,000 years, where as an era is 100,000,000 years.
What are the units of geologic time from shortest to longest?
The units of geologic time, from shortest to longest, are as follows: epoch, period, era, and eon. An epoch is the smallest unit, representing a subdivision of a period, which is a division of an era. Eras are then grouped into eons, the largest units of geologic time that encompass significant spans of Earth's history.
What represents units of geologic time in increasing order A. Era eon period epoch B. Eon era period epoch C. Epoch period era eon D. Epoch period eon era?
The correct order representing units of geologic time in increasing order is B. Eon, era, period, epoch. This hierarchy reflects the largest to smallest divisions of geologic time, with eons being the longest intervals and epochs being the shortest.
What is the shortest piece of geologic time?
The shortest piece of Geologic time is the Holocene Epoch in the Cenozoic Era>
How geologic units of similar ages are shown on a geologic map?
on geologic maps, geologic units are distinguished by color. UNITS OF SIMILAR ARE ASSIGNED COLOR IN THE SAME COLOR FAMILY.

How are geologic units of similar ages shown on a geologic map?
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.
What is 52 inches 4 yards and 13 feet in shortest to longest?
Convert to the same units then compare numbers: 1 yd = 36 in → 4 yd = 4 × 36 in = 144 in 1 ft = 12 in → 13 ft = 13 × 12 in = 156 in 52 < 144 < 156 → 52 in < 144 in < 156 in → 52 in < 4 yd < 13 ft → order from shortest to longest is 52 inches, 4 yards, 13 feet (They are already in the correct order)
Can side lengths of 6 5 and 9 units form a triangle?
Yes they can. Where the shortest sides added together are greater than the longest side, a triangle is formed.
What does geologic time have to do with eras?
Eras are subdivisions of larger units of geologic time called eons.
What do the colors on a geologic map represent?
Geologic maps use color to represent various types of geologic features or units (a particular type of rock with a known age range).
What is the order of this shortest to longest m cm mm km dm?
The order of m,cm,mm,km and dm shortest to longest is as followed:1st - mm (millimeter)2nd - cm (centimeter)3rd - dm (decimeter)4th - m (meter)5th - km (kilometer)
