4.- Choose the correct word for the following definition. (0,25/2MARKS)

“Lo que el Espíritu une, nada lo separa”

Plantae - Taxonomy - Fungi- relative dating- geologic time scale – mass extinction – absolute dating -
fossil
1) Fossil is a trace or imprint of a living thing that is preserved by geological processes.
2) relative dating determines whether a fossil formed before or after another fossil.
3) geologic time scale is the standard method used to divide Earth’s long natural history into manageable
parts.
4) mass extinction occurs when the large numbers of species go extinct during a relatively short amount of
time.
5) absolute dating estimates the age of fossil in years based on information from radioactive elements.
6) fungi is a kingdom made up of non-green eukaryotes organisms, which break down substances and
absorb nutrients.
7) taxonomy is the science of describing, classifying and naming living things.
8) plantae is a kingdom made up of multicellular organisms that have cell wall but the organisms can’t
move.
