the organism. Q: Based on the conditions of early Earth‚ what conclusion can you draw about the amount of anaerobic respiration that was occurring at Earth’s beginning? Explain your answer. A: The atmosphere of early Earth was made up with almost of different nitrogen gases‚ water vapor and carbon dioxide. There wasn’t any pure oxygen or I should say there wasn’t any breathable oxygen in the air in those days. The first form on earth had to develop in the absence of oxygen using the anaerobic

events in each era. Did more Earth-shaping events occur early in Earth’s history or later on? Explain why. Based on my geologic time scale‚ there are three events in Precambrian Time‚ two events in Paleozoic Era‚ four events in Mesozoic Era and one event in Cenozoic Era. These events mostly occurred later on in Earth’s history. Mesozoic Era has the most events which are four out of ten events on the list‚ mean that Earth-shaping events happened more recently. Earth-shaping events occur later on

The structure of the earth The earth has three major parts-the land part or lithosphere‚ the water part or hydrosphere and the air part or atmostpere. The lithosphere is the surface on which you live . It is also the earth solid sphere consisting mainly of massive rocks.

The hydrosphere include all water forms

the history of mother earth. Only in the last few centuries‚ the impact of man on climate change has accelerated. Due to rapid industrialization and very high energy consumption‚ man has been drilling petrol from deep inside the earth‚ throwing it out into atmosphere through uncontrolled emission almost relentlessly every second and all over the world. Thus Mother earth has been subjected to artificial volcanic eruptions every second‚ polluting the atmosphere all around earth. This definitely has

“EARTH HISTORY” Geologic Time: Geology needs a time Scale: -The prime goal of the science of geology‚ is to interpreting earth history. Geological time scale- -Anordered‚internallyconsistent‚ internationally recognized sequence of time intervals‚ and record the life of Earth. Short history of geology: James Ussher(mid 1600s)- he determined that earth was only a few thousands of years old having been created in 4004 b.c Catastrophists(17-18cen.)-believed that earth landscape had been developed

Dynamic Earth Has the Earth been static since the beginning of time? Well‚ Earth hasn’t been moving vigorously but it is changing at a steady rate. New geological features‚ rock formations‚ and locations of plates all rise and demolish some in a lifetime and others over a span of millions of years. Earth is dynamic; it constantly progresses and doesn’t rest. Through the churns and molds‚ the twists and turns‚ Earth is active because of plate tectonics and the rock cycle. The ideas
