Over-all Instruction : This exam is provided to assess your learnings.Answer honestly without the help of
others.
Remember: You can fool others but not yourself  STRICLY NO ERASURES.

______________1. is concerned with the development of the planet Earth from its formation to the present
day.
______________2.Danish scientist,studied the relative positions of sedimentary rocks.
______________3. are formed particle by particle and layer by layer.
______________4.are also called STRATA
______________5. is the science of rock layers.
______________6.are basic principles that all geologists use in deciphering the age and characteristics of
rock layers.
______________7. is used to arrange geological events and the rocks they leave behind in a sequence.
______________8. refers to use of animal bones to determine the age of sedimentary layers and the materials
embedded within those layers.
______________9. is the term used to describe any dating technique that tells how old a rock specimen is in
years.
______________10.Until the advent of radiometric dating,there was no independent way to test the accuracy
of relative dating of sedimentary sequence.
______________11. method is independent of all physical and chemical conditions such as
temperature,pressure and chemical agents.
______________12.any trace of living creatures such as recognizable structure or impression of a structure of
an organism like skeleton, trails or fecal remains that are embedded in very old rocks which are at least 5000
years old.
______________13.is a record of the life forms and geological events in Earth’s history.
______________14.a very large division of geologic time equal to a billion years,or a very long period of
time.On the time scale,the Phanerozoic Eon is the most recent eon and began more than 500 million years
ago.

______________15. Is the smaller time interval that divides Eon. The Phanerozoic is divided into 3 eras :
Cenozoc,Mesozoic and Paleozoic.

______________16. Eras are subdivided into periods.The events that bound the periods are widespread in
their extent but are not as significant as those which bound the eras.Each era has at least two periods.

______________17.Finer subdivisions of time are possible and the periods are frequently subdivided into
epochs.
______________18.The Precambrian’s lower limit is not defined,but ended about 542 million years ago.The
Precambrian encompasses about 90% of Earth’s History.

______________19.This era began 542 million years ago and lasted about 291 million years.The name was
compounded from Greek palaois(old) and zoon (animal).

______________20.This era began 251 million years ago and lasted about 186 million years.The name was
compounded from Greek mesos(middle) and zoon (animal).Popular name:Age of Reptiles
______________21.This era began 66 million years ago and includes the geological present.The name was
compounded from Greek kainos (new) and zoon (animal).

______________22.The continents were covered with vast deserts and high mountains.
______________23. The seas spread in the continents again.
______________24. Rivers flowed slowly on the eroded land to form huge deltas.
