🗑
|
||||
| Evolutionists believe the earth's age is | 4-5 billion years
🗑
|
||||
| Young-earth Creationists believe the earth's age is | about 6,500 years
🗑
|

| Radiocarbon dating is fairly accurate for carbon-containing specimens younger than | 5,000 years old
🗑
|
||||
| Geologists that study earthquakes waves | Seismologists
🗑
|
||||
| What did God do on the 7th day of Creation | Rested
🗑
|
||||
| Layers of rock within the earth's crust | Strata
🗑
|
||||
| Key principle of uniformitarianism | The present is the key to the past
🗑
|
||||
| Dating method used when counting tree rings to determine age | Dendrochronology
🗑
|
||||
| The old-earth view of the earth's history, which assigns to rocks ages that extend far back into time | Deep-time viewpoint
🗑
|
||||
| Theories and models of the earth's formation and the processes that shaped its surface | Historical geology
🗑
|
||||
| Material that has settled out of a body of water | Sediment
🗑
|
||||
| An argument against the doctrine of uniformity | Fossil graveyards
🗑
|
||||
| Peformed genealogical dating | Ussher
🗑
|
||||
| The change of a radioactive element into a different radioactive or nonradioactive element | Decay
🗑
|
||||
| Marks a boundary between two layers of the earth when there is a change in speed | Discontinuity
🗑
|
||||
| Boundary between the crust and mantle. A seismic discontinuity in the earth that marks the depth where earthquake waves suddenly chsange speed as they travel through the earth. | Mohorovicic discontinuity (or Moho)
🗑
|
||||
| The pressure of this part of the earth are extremely high. It is believed to have a liquid outer part. It contains 16% of the earth's volume. | Core
🗑
|
||||
| Two different zones of rock act together as a unit to form the plates of the earth's shell. | Lithosphere
🗑
|
||||
| Earthquake waves do not increase with depth as fast in this zone as they do in the rest of the mantle, perhaps because rocks are closer to melting. | Asthenosphere
🗑
|
||||
| Occupies 84% of the earth's volume.At some levels of this region, rock is thought to flow in slow convective patterns. Earthquakes travel faster here than in the crust. | Mantle
🗑
|
||||
| Know how to label the Earth's interior | (Drawing on p.341)
🗑
|
||||
| This dating method uses tests such as liquid scintillation counting and an instrument called an accelerated mass spectrometer. Uses the ratio of carbon-14 and carbon-12 to determine age. The most reliable form of radioactive dating. | Radiocarbon dating
🗑
|
||||
| This dating method examines a process that occurs at a constant rate. | Radioactive dating
🗑
|
||||
| This method is based on the radioactive decay of uranium into lead by a chain of other radioactive elements | Uranium-lead method
🗑
|
||||
| This method uses the ratio of argon to find the age of the rock | Potassium-argon method
🗑
|
||||
| A scientist who studies mainly the solid structure of the earth. They can also study satellite photos of the earth in search of oil deposits. | Geologist
🗑
|
||||
| A geologist who studies earthquakes | Seismologist
🗑
