(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

The process of an isotope breaking down into another isotope
Radioactive decay
In which Geologic period did the dinosaurs go extinct?
Cretaceous
A common method of dating anything that was once alive
Radiocarbon Dating
The Principle of Cross-Cutting Relationships
A rock feature that cuts across another feature must be younger than the rock it cuts
Marked by major changes in the fossil record it's the next to longest subdivision of the Geologic Time Scale
Era
Geologic period characterized by the mass extinction of approx. 90% of all animal species
Permian
These animals are thought to be the descendants of the Saurischian dinosaurs
Birds
The shortest subdivision of the Geologic Time Scale
Epoch
Micro-organism that changed Earth's atmosphere by producing oxygen
Cyanobacteria/blue-green algae
The gradual change in living things over a long period of time
Evolution
Which scientist created the modern idea of evolution?
Charles Darwin
When Nature chooses which organisms survive based on their adaptations
Natural Selection
Principle of Original Horizontality
Sediments are deposited in horizontal layers parallel to the surface on which they were deposited
This time period encompasses over 80% of Earth's history
Pre-Cambrian
Principle of Superposition
In undisturbed sedimentary rock, the oldest rock layers are at the bottom and the youngest at the top
Early molecules that could replicate and store genetic information to make proteins
RNA-like molecules
These earliest fossils were produced by layered sedimentary formations created by microorganisms
Stromatolites
The Geologic Era in which we live
Cenozoic
The proposed geological epoch dating from the commencement of significant human impact an Earth's geology and ecosystems
Anthropocene
What is believed to have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs?
Large asteroid/meteor impact
Geologic Era in which the dinosaurs reigned "The Age of the Dinosaurs"
Mesozoic
The time it takes for 1/2 of parent isotopes to decay
Half-life
Geologic period characterized by dense, swampy forests, which gave rise to large deposits of peat
Carboniferous
The Geologic Period in which dinosaurs evolved
Triassic
The longest subdivision of the Geologic Time Scale
Eon
Geologic Period characterized by an explosion in the diversity of life
Cambrian
Experiment that simulated Earth's early conditions that produced amino acids
Miller-Urey
