List all the layers of rock in order from oldest to newest?
There are thousands of layers in the earth's crust. However, scientists have grouped the layers into major groups. The most recent three layers are the Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic (listed from oldest to youngest). These layers represent the last 500 million years of life on earth.
How do you determine the order of rock layers?
The chronological order of rock layers is usually determined by their order in an undisturbed sequence of strata. According to the principle of superposition, the oldest layers would be found at the bottom and the youngest layers at the top. In disturbed rock layers (those that have been folded, uplifted, or generally disrupted by tectonic forces), the determination must be made based on the presence of index fossils, comparison to undisturbed strata or radiometric dating.
What are the three main layers of earth based on composition?
Physically, the Earth has numerous layers. Chemically, however, the solid portion of Earth can be divided into three distinct layers. In order from the surface going down, they are as follows: 1. The Crust--Major chemical constituents are oxygen, silicon, and aluminum. 2. The Mantle--Major chemical constituents are silicon, oxygen, iron, and magnesium. 3. The Core--Mostly iron and nickel.

What are the four most common layers of the atmosphere?
There are four major spheres of the Earth, which are lithosphere, biosphere, atmosphere and hydrosphere. The atmosphere is divided into five layers, which are (in order from closest to surface to furthest from surface) troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere and exosphere.
What does a country need in order for more farmland to be irrigated?
Water reservoirs that are often man-made, pipelines that extend from a lake or river to fields, or a large underground aquifer to source their water from, such as the Ogallala Aquifer in the United States.

What is the proper order of the layers of a generic atmosphere from lowest altitude to highest?
The atmosphere has four layers. Here is the order of the layer from the lowest altitude: the troposphere, stratosphere, thermosphere, and the exosphere.
