8. 5.) Why are index fossils useful to geologists? 1.They tell the absolute of the rock. 2.They tell the ages of MANY rock layers in different locations 3.They tell how the fossil was formed. 4.They tell the EXACT age of the entire rock layer.

10. 6.) Which is the correct sequence of events? (oldest first) 1.H, M, R 2.M, B, R 3.I, H, M 4.I, M, H 5.R, F, B

11. 7.) What is meant by the relative age of a fossil? 1.Its age compared to other rocks or fossils. 2.The number of years since it formed. 3.Its age as determined by carbon dating. 4.Its age as determined by the radioisotopes it contains.

12. 8.) How do most fossils form? 1.The hard parts of an organism dry out in the air. 2.The soft parts of an organism harden and turn to stone. 3.An organism is buried by lava flows and encased in rock. 4.An organism dies and its remains are buried by sediments.
