There has been no impact.
Life is still the same as 1 mya
We don't have proof of changes
Earth's climate/geograph has changed
3
Where do the youngest/latest organisms/fossils appear?
There isn't enough information
On the bottom
On top
In the middle
4
The oldest rock layer is found on the bottom
Principle of lateral continuity
Principle of Superposition
Principle of Original Horizontality
Principle of cross cutting relationships
5
Increasing the temperature of a material will cause its density to
Decrease
Stay the same
temperature does not effect density
Increase
6
The process that happens at an ocean trench is
subduction
new crust formation
convection current
transformation
7
Which plate boundary is at a mid-ocean ridge?
ocean
Convergent
Divergent
Transform
8
The outermost layer of Earth's crust is called the...
atmosphere
oceans
lithosphere
biosphere
9
Index fossils tell us
found in 1 layer of rock
All of the above
Other fossils in the layer are the same relative age
only lived for a short period of time
10
Which feature has the oldest crust
seafloor spreading
Mid ocean ridge
Trench
subduction
11
Relative age/dating
tells how old my family members are
only useful for ordering rock strata
is not helpful in determining order historical events
helps to order past events

Seafloor spreading
mass extinctions
13
Which of the following is evidence for Wegener's continental drift theory
continent shapes seem to fit together
similar fossils on different continents
all of the above
Mountains and rock strata matched on different continents
14
What evidence can be used to prove major events changed earth?
Fossils
Both 1 & 3
