  3. GEOLOGIAL PERSPECTIVES - PLANET EARTH GLO 4 – Fossil Evidence • Question 3 • Scientists who study early life forms by interpreting animal and plant fossils are called … • A. geologists • B. geophysicists • C. paleontologists • D. archaeologists • Question 4 • When an organism is buried under many layers of sediment, pressure and heat build up, leaving a thin film of carbon residue on the rock surfaces. This residue forms the outline of the organism and is called ... • A. petrified residue • B. carbonaceous film • C. trace fossil residue • D. carbon-dated remains Slide will change automatically

  5. GEOLOGIAL PERSPECTIVES - PLANET EARTH GLO 4 – Fossil Evidence • Question 7 • The process that takes thousands of years and can only happen under certain conditions is called fossilization. The most common fossils found are … • A. plants • B. worms • C. jellyfish • D. vertebrates • Question 8 • Over time layers upon layers of sediment build up , providing important information about the past. These layers called strata revel certain fossils that lived in certain time periods. These fossils are known as … • A. trace fossils • B. index fossils • C. amber fossils • D. cast fossils Slide will change automatically

  6. GEOLOGIAL PERSPECTIVES - PLANET EARTH GLO 4 – Interpreting Fossils • Question 9 • Geological columns are formations in sedimentary rock that help scientists to determine the age of the fossils they find. Fossils found in column 7 will be … • A. older than those found in 2 and 8 • B. younger than those found in 10 and 6 • C. older than those found in 4 and 3 • D. younger than those found in 2 and 9 • Question 10 • Scientists have found organisms intact in this type of fossil and have even been able to extract DNA from the organism, with limited success ... • A. shale • B. amber • C. trilobite • D. Albertosaurus Slide will change automatically

  7. GEOLOGIAL PERSPECTIVES - PLANET EARTH GLO 4 – Interpreting Fossils • Question 11 • Layers of sedimentary rock stay in their original position, with the newest layers on the top and the older layers on the bottom. These layers of rock are called ... • A. indexing • B. parent rock • C. rock strata • D. superimposed • Question 12 • The preserved remains of many soft tissue species have been located in the Burgess Shale Fossil Beds, located in Yoho National Park, British Columbia. These fossils are usually the remains of … • A. producers and herbivores • B. herbivores and consumers • C. consumers and decomposers • D. decomposers and scavengers Slide will change automatically

  8. GEOLOGIAL PERSPECTIVES - PLANET EARTH GLO 4 – Interpreting Fossils • Question 13 • An important dinosaur discovery by Joseph Tyrell sparked interest in the Badlands of Drumheller.
