Age before Beauty
The Law of Superposition is used to determine the age of this type of rock.
What is "sedimentary" rock?
GC stands for the hypothetical time chart used by evolutionists to explain the time required for the universe to develop over millions of years. What does the GC stand for?
What is the "Geologic Column"?
Fossils must be buried rapidly to prevent this.
What is "decomposition"?
This is the branch of geology that studies fossils.
What is "paleontology"?
Fossils are only found in this type of rock.
What is "sedimentary" rock?
According to the Law of Superposition, this layer contains the oldest layer of sediment.
What is the "bottom" layer?
This best explains the anomalies found within the Geologic Column.
What is a "global flood"?
Fossil type that contains the entire animal including hair, skin, and clothing.
What is a "whole-specimen" fossil?
The remains of once living things preserved in rock.
What is a "fossil"?
Fossils found near the bottom of the GC.
What are "simple" fossils?
According to the Law of Superposition, this layer contains the most recent layer of sediment.
What is the "top" layer?
Since the GC can not be proven, we use this term to describe it.
What is "hypothetical"?
In this type of fossil, the remains have been replaced by minerals.
What is a "petrified" fossil?
Fossils that appear "misplaced" or are not found in the correct rock layer.
What are "anomalies"?
This small, extinct marine crustacean is used as an "index" fossil.
What is a "trilobite"?
Used to determine the age of fossilized organic material
What is Carbon-14 Dating?
The largest/broadest divisions of time in the GC?
What are "eras"?
This type of fossil has been preserved in hardened tree sap called amber.
What is a "resin" fossil?
A fossil that is used as a "marker" to determine the age of a layer of rock.
What is an "index" fossil?
Fossils found near the top of the GC.
What are "complex" fossils?
Time it takes for half of a parent element to turn into another element
What is "half-life"?
The smallest/narrowest divisions of time in the GC?
What are "epochs"?
These two types of fossils are NOT found buried in layers of sediment.
What are "resin" fossils and "whole-specimen" fossils?
This happens when a scientists uses ideas from a particular theory to prove the particular theory.
What is "circular reasoning"?
Used to determine the age of igneous rocks.
What is "radiometric dating"?
