    This document contains a pre-test, activities, and post-test for a geology lesson. The activities focus on identifying different types of unconformities in diagrams, matching vocabulary terms to their definitions, and distinguishing between relative and absolute dating methods. Key terms defined include radioactive decay, radiometric dating, half-life, and uniformitarianism. The activities assess understanding of concepts like nonconformities, angular unconformities, horizontal unconformities, and distinguishing relative techniques like superposition from absolute ones like radiometric dating.

    Activity 2

    MATCH THE DIAGRAM

    Match each diagram with the type of unconformity it shows. Write the letter of the matching diagram in
    the space provided. Then describe each unconformity and how it is formed.

    B 1. Nonconformity - is used for unconformities at which strata were deposited on a basement of older
    crystalline rocks.

    C 2. Angular Unconformity - At an angular unconformity, strata below the unconformity have a different
    attitude than strata above the unconformity

    A 3. Horizontal unconformity - An angular unconformity is an unconformity where horizontally parallel


    strata of sedimentary rock are deposited on tilted and eroded layers, producing an angular discordance
    with the overlying horizontal layers.
    Activity 1

    Vocabulary Words

    1. Absolute - Use absolute as a noun or an adjective when you're so sure of something that you know it
    will never change. ... Absolute can also mean "without any doubt," as in the case of an absolute beauty
    — such as a glamorous movie star or a supermodel — or "without limits," such as a dictator who has
    absolute power over the people.

    2. Radioactive Decay - Radioactive decay is the spontaneous breakdown of an atomic nucleus resulting
    in the release of energy and matter from the nucleus. Remember that a radioisotope has unstable nuclei
    that does not have enough binding energy to hold the nucleus together.

    3. Radiometric dating - Radiometric dating, radioactive dating or radioisotope dating is a technique


    which is used to date materials such as rocks or carbon, in which trace radioactive impurities were
    selectively incorporated when they were formed.

    4. Half – life - The definition of elimination half-life is the length of time required for the concentration of
    a particular substance (typically a drug) to decrease to half of its starting dose in the body.

    5. Uniformitarianism - the theory that changes in the earth's crust during geological history have
    resulted from the action of continuous and uniform processes.

    Activity 2
