Which information is needed to construct a geomagnetic time scale?

Biology

AleksAgata [21]3 years ago

Answer:

the magnetic direction of rocks along the surface of Earth and the age of rocks along the surface of Earth

Explanation:

The earth's magnetic field or geomagnetic field is believed to originate from the movement of molten iron and nickel in the outer core.

During a period in which the earth magnetic field is normal, crystallising magnetic minerals in magma records the orientation of the prevailing geomagnetic field. At other times when the field reverses and the magnetic field orientation changes, magnetic minerals in cooling magma stores this record.

To create a geomagnetic time scale, geologists can assign absolute ages to the records of these paleomagnetic anomalies which are the reversals. The rock is dated using radiometric techniques and each period of reversal is ascribed an absolute geologic age. Therefore, the magnetic direction of rocks along the surface of Earth and the age of rocks along the surface of Earth helps to build the geomagnetic time scale of the earth.

Write a letter to your headmaster why moral lesson should be instill into students ​
Gnoma [55]

Dear Mrs. Been.

In view of the importance that you have in our educational environment in relation to the position of headmaster that you occupy, I would like to emphasize the importance of classes with moral lessons, in the hope that you will authorize and encourage this type of lesson in our school.

The most important positive point of adopting this type of lesson is to teach students to distinguish correct and incorrect elements, about behaviors and concepts. This will allow for the formation of conscious adults with great rational capacity.

Another positive point is the ability to encourage students to solve ethical and moral problems that develop from a non-linear point of view, as most problems in the real world present themselves. By seeing and solving these problems in the school environment, students will be better prepared for the future that awaits them.

Last but not least, I would like to point out that students who have well-stimulated and trained moral concepts are better able to promote not only personal benefits, but also social, political and economic benefits for the communities in which they operate.

I look forward to your comments on this suggestion.

Kind regards,

Mary Lang
