Warm Up, October 2nd, 20131) C-14 has gone through how many
half-lives if it’s about 23,000 years old? What % is left if it starts at 80%?
2) What has NOT happened to over 99% of life on Earth?
3) What 3 criteria make up a good Index Fossil?
4) What can ice cores tell us about Earth of the past? (2 examples)

Geologic Time• The scale scientists use to determine
the order of events and when they took place on Earth.

How do we measure Geologic Time?
• In several sections:– Eons (biggest)– Eras– Periods– Epochs (smallest)

Precambrian Eon Phanerozoic Eon
• Most of Earth’s history• 4 Billion Years• No large life (microscopic)
• Very little of Earth’s history• 500 million years• Larger life begins (non-microscopic)

Speaking of microscopic life…Is it possible to have fossils of singlecelled life?
Why or why not?
