Chapter 28.1 and 28.2pages 521 to 536 Content Standard 4: The Earth System – A system that has changed over time, which includes dynamic changes in the Earth’s crust, is the Earth system 1. Geologic time can be estimated by observing rock sequences and using fossils to correlate sequences at various locations.
