Geologic change can occur through processes such as plate tectonics, which reshapes the Earth's surface by moving continents and causing earthquakes and volcanic activity. Erosion and sedimentation also play crucial roles, as wind, water, and ice wear down rocks and transport materials, leading to the formation of new landscapes over time. Additionally, the concept of uniformitarianism suggests that the processes shaping the Earth today have operated similarly throughout its history, providing insights into past geological events.
What else can I help you with?
What is the during which geologic period did all three fossils form?
To accurately answer your question, I would need to know which specific fossils you are referring to, as different fossils can originate from various geologic periods. If you provide the names of the fossils or their characteristics, I can help identify the geologic period during which they formed.
What idea best describes our modern understanding of geologic change?
I think you are going for plate tectonics.
4. What are the three traits of an index fossil?
There are technically more than three traits and those traits are distinctive, widespread, abundant and limited in geologic time.
How many eons are there?
There are four eons dividing the geologic scale. Three occurred during the Precambrian era.
Is A geologic era is a shorter unit of time than a geologic period?
No, a geologic era is a longer unit of time than a geologic period. Geologic eras are divided into periods, which are further subdivided into epochs. The hierarchy from largest to smallest is era, period, epoch.
What is the geologic principle that the same geologic processes that operate today operated in the past to change Earths surface?
uniformitarianism
What is the definition of uniformitarianism?
The geologic principle that the same geologic processes that operate today operated in the past to change Earth's surface.
What is the three types of geologic resources?
Energy,metallic, and nonmetallic.
What states that geologic processes do not change over time?
uniformitarianism
What is this geologic feature is likely to be found at all three boundaries?
Divergent
How many syllables does ideas have?
Ideas has three syllables.
Why does being open to new ideas bring change?
because new ideas are ideas that change they change the world because they do
What do modern day scientists believe about geologic change?
It all happens suddenly
What 3 things usually happen to signal a change from one geologic time interval to another?
These 3 things usually happen to signal a change from one geologic time interval to another...rocks changeclimate changesdisappearances or appearances of life
What event is used to separate the geologic eras?
The event used to separate geologic eras is a significant change in Earth's environment or life forms, known as a mass extinction event.
What three of these ideas can be seen in well known Renaissance painting by Paolo Veronese?
this question is not complete - what three of WHAT ideas - ideas not listed
What is the idea that geologic change happens suddenly?
The idea that geologic change can happen suddenly is known as catastrophism. This theory proposes that Earth's geological features are mainly a result of sudden, short-lived, and violent events, rather than gradual processes over time. While some catastrophic events like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions can cause rapid geologic changes, most changes on Earth's surface are the result of slow and continuous processes such as erosion and sedimentation.
