Why were scientists surprised to find life around hydrothermal vents?
hot springs on the sea floor that pump out superheated water from inside earth.
Ice samples from glaciers provide evidence that today's atmosphere contains more carbon dioxide than ancient atmosphere on earth did.why id this increase in carbon dioxide a concern to scientists?
It is of no concern to scientists - its just data. However, it is a concern to the human beings who are also scientists since their environment is getting fouled up.
What are seven different types of scientists?
Archaeologists. Astronomers. Biologists. Chemists. Computer Scientists. Earth Scientists. Educational psychologists.
How did Muslims contribute to science?
Muslim scientists who studied the heavens perfected the Greek astrolabe. Sailors use this tool to study the stars and determine their location at sea. They used the astrolabe to measure the size and distance around the Earth. Based on the measurements they figured out Earth is round.
What kind of scientists worked with geologists?
Any scientists interested in earth sciences: mineralogist and mining engineer.
What two types of evidence do scientists use to determine what is inside Earth?
Indirect evidence from Seismic Waves, and direct evidence from rock samples.
How did scientists determine that the Earth's mantle existed?
Scientists used detectors which determined the mantle existed. As well, scientists must hypothesize and theorize what cannot be readily seen, and make determinations based on the evidence that does exist.
Why do scientists study rocks in order to study the inside of the earth?
Types of rocks are inside the Earth, so scientists study them.
Who do scientists figure out what inside earth?
by digging holes in the earth
How did the scientists determine the shape of the earth?
round shape
What planet have scientists found evidence of life on?
So far Earth. They do have robots on Mars so they could be evidence.
When it comes down to geographical evidence is earth coming to an end?
Scientists say yes.
What is the primary source of evidence proposed by scientists to support the theory of an ancient Earth?
Fossils.
How did scientists determine Earth has layers?
Scientists determined that the Earth has layers through studying how seismic waves travel. These seismic waves differed depending on how thick the layer was.
What evidence did scientists use to figure out that earth inner core is solid rock?
They do not have evidence. In fact most pf things are not even true. The only thing they say they did was put a stick on the ground and with a shockwave they knew what was inside the earth. My opinion is that the core is not what scientists say it is. Due to the fact that we know more about the moon than our own planet.
How do scientists find out information on the core?
Scientists find out information on the core by using special tools to dig out samples from deep inside the earth. Special instruments "look inside" parts of the earth we cannot see.
What is the law of superposition and how does it help scientists learn about earth's past?
Determine the age of the layers of rocks
