the idea that Earth has always changed in uniforms

the preserved remains of plants and animals whose bodies were buried in sediment

the activities and behaviors of past life

the long -terms pattern of weather in a particular area

a cylinder shaped sample of ice drill from a glacier

is a fundamental principle in physics and mathematics that describes how a system can exist in multiple states simultaneously until it is measured or observed.

a surface of contact between two groups of unconformable strata:

is a conceptual framework that organizes Earth's rock layers in chronological order, from oldest at the bottom to youngest at the top, representing the planet’s history over billions of years.

is a scientific method used to determine the specific numerical age of an object, geological formation, or historical event, often expressed in years.

is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy to form a more stable nucleus, emitting radiation in the process.

is the time required for half of a substance to decay or transform, commonly used in physics, chemistry, and biology.

is a scientific method used to determine the age of rocks, fossils, and other materials by measuring the decay of radioactive isotopes.
