Description

i need someone who is really good at earth sicence to finish these assingments and gurantee me that I willl get a 100 on it.....the assingments are quite simple becuase they are projects.....you will need to finish both projects and finish them to get ME A 100..FORSURE..

1. Project: Construct a Geologic Time Scale For this project you will construct your very own geologic time scale. Select ONE of the options below. 1. Create a model of the geologic time scale by making clay art or by using other props (toy dinosaurs, etc). In your model, have objects or artwork that show a major event or life form from each eon, as well as from each of the twelve periods of the Phanerozoic Eon. (You will need to do some research on the twelve periods of the Phanerozoic.) Examples might include a clay volcano for the Hadean, a plastic toy fish for the Devonian Period (since fish dominated the Devonian), or a human doll for the Quaternary Period (since we now live in the Quaternary), etc. Place them in order, with the earliest time on the far left and the most recent time on the far right. Record a video of your timeline or take pictures of the individual parts. With your model, include a written report of the item that you selected for each chunk of time and the time in history represented by each (252 mya, etc.). Submit your report and your pictures or movie for grading. 2. Design a museum exhibit on the geologic time scale. Have a different room for each of the first three eons, and then a room for each of the twelve periods of the Phanerozoic Eon. Think of images that would be appropriate to represent each piece of time (volcanoes for the Hadean, dinosaurs for the Jurassic Period, etc.) You will need to do some research on the twelve periods of the Phanerozoic in order to know what to include for each of them. For grading, either submit a written description of what each room will look like or record a podcast that gives visitors to your museum a recorded tour. Your written description or podcast should include the name of each room, at least one image for each room (a total of fifteen rooms: first three eons and twelve periods of the Phanerozoic), the times in history when each occurred, and why you selected the image that you did. A good website for conducting research on geologic time is the Tour of Geologic Time site, maintained by the University of California at Berkeley. You can also check out the PaleoMap Project website, which has good descriptions of geologic time as well as animations that show the continents moving through time. 2. Project: The Geologic Tour of America Your job for this assignment is to design a travel brochure or television infomercial that will teach someone from another country about some of the geologic features of North America. Specifically, your client wants to know about the six geologic provinces you learned about in this section, the Hawaiian Islands, and Yellowstone National Park. Your client would like to see a picture of each of these places and learn how they are related to plate tectonics. Create a brochure or multimedia presentation to give your client. It should include at least one picture of each of the six geologic provinces, Hawaii, and Yellowstone. With each picture, include a brief explanation of the role of plate tectonics in creating that specific landscape. If plate tectonics did not contribute to any of the given landscapes, then explain how that landscape did form. Your assignment can be as creative as you want, but make sure it meets the minimum requirements. Convince your client that you are an expert about these landscapes and that they really should come and visit them.

Explanation & Answer

After sitting through wayyy too much traffic, I can finally get the two projects to you.

Geologic Tour of America

Hawaii
The islands of Hawaii were formed
through the eruption of several
undersea volcanoes. As the magma
cooled, new eruptions would take
place, causing a stacking effect that
eventually brought the tops of the
islands above sea level. The volcanic
hot spot that created the islands was
caused by tectonic plates moving
apart and creating a rift.

Yellowstone
Yellowstone was created from a hot
spot under Earth’s mantle which
pushed a large plume of magma up to
the surface, causing the crust to jut
upwards. Plates slowly drifting apart
create the super volcano that lies
beneath Yellowstone and keeps the
hot spot active.

plates ramming into each other and
forcing each other to slowly jut
upwards.

Appalachian Orogen
Piedmont
Piedmont as seen today is the result
of years of erosion chipping away at
ancient mountains. The original
mountains were created by tectonic

The Appalachian orogen is another
example of tectonic plates colliding to
form mountain ranges over time.
Unlike the highly eroded mountains of
Piedmont, these still stand tall.

Midcontinent Rift System
Grenville Orogen
The Grenville orogen is a system of
fold mountains that have formed on
the landscape. Like most mountains,
theses were formed through several
collisions of tectonic plates which
slowly pushed sections of the crust
upwards.

The midcontinent rift system was
formed as a result of a failed rift
creation. This initial rift was caused by
plates pulling apart, however it did not
create the full rift which is suspected to
have created another ocean or sea
had it been successful.

Stable platform
Stable platforms have some slight, but
noticeable tectonic activity. Stable
platforms are generally the result of an
earlier deformation that has become
covered over by sedimentary rock.
