Finding the Relative Age of Rocks

Fossils Fossil are the preserved remains or traces of living things. They form when living things die and are buried by sediment. They are usually.

(7th) Chapter 8-2 Cornell Notes The Relative Age of Rocks

Chapter 8-2 Key Questions 1. What is the law of superposition? 2. How do geologists determine the relative age of rocks?

Chapter 8-2 Key Terms relative age- absolute age- law of superposition- extrusion- intrusion- fault- unconformity- inclusion- index fossil-

Chapter 8-2 Paragraph 1 relative age: rock’s age compared to ages of other rocks; absolute age: number of years since the rock is formed; Example: sedimentary rock layers provide record of geologic history.

Chapter 8-2 Paragraph 2 absolute age difficult to measure; relative age uses law of superposition; law of superposition: lower the sedimentary rock layer the older it is.

Chapter 8-2 Paragraph 3 relative age methods: extrusion: lava hardens on the surface, rests on older rock; intrusion: magma pushes into rock, younger than surrounding rock; fault: break in earth’s crust, younger than rock it cuts through.

Chapter 8-2 Paragraph 4 unconformity: new rock layers meet much older rock surface beneath them; gap in geologic record; possibly caused through erosion; inclusion: present with unconformity; rock within a rock but older than surrounding rock.

Chapter 8-2 Paragraph 5 rock layers dated through relative aging at different locations; index fossils used; index fossils: widely distributed fossils but relatively short life span; examples: ammonites, trilobites, and brachiopods.
