The earth was created only 6000 years ago because the evidence of the rocks suppor that idea. Any great change is due to small but cumulative changes that occur over long periods of time.

- Imagine you are the head of a newly formed NASA Interplanetary Paleontology Department! Based on preliminary observations of a nearby planet (listed below), do you expect fossils to be in high or low abundance? Provide three evidence-based arguments to justify your choice, identifying the type of fossil record bias associated with each. Preliminary Observations: Volcanic eruptions and the formation of rift valleys and active subduction zones are regular occurrences on this planet. Algae and many soft-bodied animals are found in the oceans. A few leafy plants and a diversity of insect- and scorpion-like animals dominate the land at low densities. You can make the following assumptions: 1. The planet is of similar age and environmental conditions to Earth 2. Decomposition and other mechanisms relevant for fossilization occur on this planet as they do on Earth 3. Environmental conditions, species diversity, and population abundances in the past remained very similar to what is present now…arrow_forwardImmanuel Kant suggested, in his Investigation of the Question Whether the Earth Has Undergone Any Change in Its Axial Rotation (1754), that, according to Newtonian physics, in the distant past: the Earth had a longer day than 365 hours, but a year equal to 365 of our modern 24-hour days the Earth had a shorter year than 365 of our modern 24-hour days, but a longer day than 24 hours the Earth had a shorter day than 24 hours, but a year equal to 365 of our modern 24-hour days the Earth had a longer day than 24 hours, but a longer year than 365 of our modern 24-hour days the Earth had a year equal to 365 of our modern 24-hour days, but a longer day than 24 hoursarrow_forwardFor this activity, you will be reviewing the geological time scale in the module readingassignment from the Geological Time chapter in the PRI Digital Atlas of Ancient Life –online textbook and the Earth History chapter from the OER Commons Earth ScienceTextbook.

- 1. The representation must be on a linear scale (not logarithmic) . Have the student to present the years in a way that really helps the audience to visualize just how long Earth has been around compared to how short an amount of time humans have been on earth, for example. 2. Have the student include a legend that allows the audience to interpret how they are representing the time since each event has occurred (e.g., 1cm = 1000 years, 1mL = 100,000 years, 1 second = 10,000 years) 4. The student is to include the following important events: Start of life (~3.8 GYA[1]) Origin of eukaryotes (~2–3.5 GYA - your choice within that range) Origin of multicellularity (~2 GYA) Origin of Homo sapiens(~200 KYA) Present time (0 YA) 5. The student is to include at least 3 other events. The events must relate to the history of Earth, not human history. The student will need to find the dates of these events Formation of Earth Oxygenation of Earth’s atmosphere Origin of vertebrates Mass…arrow_forwardList in order of appearance the four stages of the origin of life and explain what was necessary to occur in order for life to have evolved in this fashion.
