A paragraph on the 3 forms of energy involved in a muscle contraction
irga5000 [103]
There are three types of energy involved in a muscle's contraction. There is metabolism, catabolism, and anabolism. Metabolism is the events that are carried out in the human body to create energy and other things needed for activity. Catabolism is the process during the organic matter is broken down and the energy is released, it takes place during increased movement. Anabolism is the energy-consuming process that substances are created, it takes place when there is little movement. All three of these work to gather in muscle contraction.

Think about how the geologic time scale was created and how it is divided. Then answer the following questions.
katovenus [111]
The geologist time scale was formed when scientists studied rock layers and index fossils worldwide. With this information, they placed Earth's rocks in order by relative age. Later, radioactive dating helped determine the exact age of the divisons in the geologic time scale.

This scale is organized by the 4.6 billion years of earth's history into sections based on important changes seen in the geologic record. The largest intervals are called eons, with each eon containing many millions of years.

In precambarian time the processes that affect Earth's surface have lessened the erosion on the surface. Earth was being hit by meteorites every second. Now there is water erosion and there wasn't back then. The surface changes have lessened over time.
