Water Quality
Which water cycle process forms clouds?
Condensation
The oldest Era of time, containing 88% of earth's history
The Precambrian Era
This Renewable Resource is common in open spaces, especially offshore where most people can't see the tall towers needed to collect its energy.
Wind
The preserved remains or traces of living things are referred to as
Fossils
all of the water on Earth, including the water in the atmosphere
The Hydrosphere
This method would be BEST for scientists to use to determine the absolute age of a Precambrian igneous rock
Radiometric Dating
Coal, Petroleum, Oil and Natural gas are referred to as this group of non-renewable resources
Fossil Fuels
These types of fossil are normally a pair. One is a hollow imprint while the other a copy of the original.
Mold and Cast fossils
Pollutants are filtered by rock and soil deep within Earth, and are stored in porous rocky areas called
Aquifers
Undisturbed layers of rock with naturally have the oldest layer at the bottom and the youngest layer at the top. This rule is referred to as the
Law of Superposition
Conservation, recycling, reducing waste, and overall proper care of our natural resources is referred to as
Stewardship
Evidence such as tracks, nest or burrows are considered to be these types of fossils
Trace Fossils
a coastal area where fresh and saltwater mix, usually resulting in the creation of brackish water is referred to as
An estuary
Most layers of the earth contain this type of rock. It is also the most common type of rock in which paleontologist can find ancient fossils.
Sedimentary rock
The MAJORITY of all energy on earth originates from this single sources. Without, most other forms of energy would not have been able to be created.
The Sun
These types of fossils are found in different place across the world. These fossils are of the same species and represent a narrow time frame in geologic history.
Trace Fossils
Colder water is denser than warm water, meaning if colder water will begin to sink if it is near the surface. This process can occur in the ocean, leading to areas of increased nutrient output and higher species of life being present. As a result, commercial fishermen love areas where this process has recently occurred
Upwelling
This time period can be referred to as the "Age of Mammals" and is the most recent era in earth's division of history.
Cenozoic Era
5 examples of Renewable resources are
Solar - Hydro - Wind - Geothermal - Biomass
In the movie "Jurassic Park" scientist discovered an insect containing DNA of prehistoric creatures referred as dinosaurs. What type of creature contained the DNA, and what was the substance it was trapped in?
