 * 5. Four Eras of Geological time : Precambrian, Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic. **


 * 6. Albert Victor- in 1911, young German scientist thinking how continents and oceans change over geological time. His idea are revolutionary because the Earth surface start to be fixed, permanent and unchanging. His concept became basis for the modern theory of Plate Tectonics. **


 * 7. Pangaea- meaning all lands **


 * 8. Oceans are as old as Earth. **


 * 9. Mid-Ocean Ridges- discover a enormous mountains chains in fracture crust. **


 * 10. Late 1960's it was cleared that enough evidence had been gathered to confirmed Wegener's theory of Continental Drift. **


 * Questions: **


 * 1. Who discovered the Four Era of Geological time? **


 * 2. Why Precambrian s the longest era of four ? **


 * 3. Why they named the super continent PANGAEA ? **


 * I think the point of watching those videos were, of course to learn...and maybe to be widely awake (since we are exercising at that time) **
