Answer:

Using the concept of relative dating

Explanation:

Scientists use the concept of relative dating principles to determine when the Great Oxidation event occurred.

Relative dating is the process of placing ancient event in their proper time sequence based on the relationship between rock lithologies.

  • An event like the great oxidation will have significant chemical, biological and physical effect on the rock units.
  • Rocks that form during this period in time will have very unique chemical signatures.
  • Therefore, by studying these rocks, the age of the layer can be fixed when we compare it to the standard geological column.

Upon assessing the client's jaw, the nurse finds decreased range of motion and notes crepitus. what would the nurse suspect?
sashaice [31]
The nurse should suspect of a fractured jaw.

The crepitus is a common sign of bone fracture and it's heard when the fractured surfaces of two broken bones rub together.
Also If there is a severe jaw fracture, the patient might experience limited ability to move the jaw or be unable to move it at all.

Do you think rain amounts can affect soil type?
Zielflug [23.3K]
Yes, I do think so. I believe the rain can break up the soil depending on the type of soil as well as rain amounts. If it doesn't rain much in California their soil might be dry and brittle, but id it rains in South Carolina theirs might by softer and moist.
