Which specific theories (provide the name of the theory and its definition) challenge Archbishop James Ussher's belief that the earth was created on October 22, 4004 BC at 9 pm? Why do we study Ussher when his date of the earth has been shown to be wrong by a large amount of evidence?
List several significant events in the history of life on earth that are associated with the K-T Boundary.
1. The representation must be on a linear scale (not logarithmic)
. Have the student to present the years in a way that really helps the audience to visualize just how long Earth has been around compared to how short an amount of time humans have been on earth, for example.
2. Have the student include a legend that allows the audience to interpret how they are representing the time since each event has occurred (e.g., 1cm = 1000 years, 1mL = 100,000 years, 1 second = 10,000 years)
4. The student is to include the following important events:
Start of life (~3.8 GYA[1])
Origin of eukaryotes (~2–3.5 GYA - your choice within that range)
Origin of multicellularity (~2 GYA)
Origin of Homo sapiens(~200 KYA)
Present time (0 YA)
5. The student is to include at least 3 other events. The events must relate to the history of Earth, not human history. The student will need to find the dates of these events
Formation of Earth
Oxygenation of Earth’s atmosphere
Origin of vertebrates

Once the deadline is near, they tend to work UNDER PRESSURE. They get easily mad and complain about everything. Why do you think this thing happen? How will you relate this scenario to the earth's interior that is also under pressure? Answer the following questions, explain your answers by citing your references and evidences (make your answer as brief as possible and underline the key words/ phrases) At present, a significant increase in greenhouse gases and atmospheric temperature is being felt. How will this affect the activities of plants, animals, microorganisms, etc. in terms of photosynthesis?

Three boxes, each associated with a vertical dotted line that marks specific time points along the x-axis, have been provided. Place a check mark in the boxes to indicate when drastic increases in atmospheric oxygen are likely to have occurred.
