In a solar eclipse the moon goes in front of the sun and then and only then can the sun's corona be seen without dmaging your eye sight. In a lunar eclipe the earth is in front of the moon and as the sun is shining twords the earth, the earth creates a shadow and the moon apears to be red. Lunar eclipses happen more frequently.

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Moon and the Sun, and the Earth's shadow obscures the moon or a portion of it. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking all or a portion of the Sun. An eclipse can be total, partial, or annular.

Where did the original atmospheric oxygen come from

faust18 [17]

The correct answer is - cyanobacteria.

The atmospheric oxygen came from the cyanobacteria. These were one of the earliest living organisms on Earth. The cyanobacteria was using photosynthesis in order to create its own food. The photosynthesis process requires sunlight, carbon dioxide, water, and oxygen. The oxygen is mostly released as a waste product from the process of photosynthesis, thus the cyanobacteria were literally releasing oxygen that was ending up into the atmosphere. As more and more cyanobacteria there were across the planet, more and more oxygen they were releasing into the atmosphere, slowly changing the composition of the atmosphere, and setting the basis of it as we know it now.

On a geologic map, cratonic basins, where thick sequences of sedimentary rocks overly the Precambrian basement, show the _______

Kryger [21]

On the geological maps in question, the cratonic basins that contain thick sequences of sedimentary rocks which overly the Precambrian basement, show the youngest rocks toward the center of the basin.

Geological maps are tools created and used by scientists to show the arrangement of the geological elements of a specific area. This can include:

Rock types
Cracks and faults
Minerals
Groundwater
Ages

and much more, depending on the area and detail of the map created.

On a detailed geo-map, we can understand not only the area we are initially standing on but also where to find geological areas with similar sediment compositions and information on the age of the rocks. This is done due to the way the map stacks the units in terms of age, from the youngest at the top to the oldest at the bottom.

Cratonic basins are areas where geological elements are widely distributed and often filled with shallow water as well as sedimentary rocks. The rocks at the center of these basins show the youngest rocks at the center due to the previously mentioned aging sequence used by the maps.
