Understanding Geologic TimeTo better wrap our minds around geologic time and the important events thathave occurred throughout Earth's history, we are going to try to look at geologictime a litle differently. In this activity, you will take all of Earth's history and ittnto one hour. Hopefully, this new perspective wil help us understand the historyofthe earth and the dearth of activity during the first few billion years. Make sure to use dimensional analysis techniques to accomplish the mathematics.1. We first need to use dimensional analysis to determine the number of seconds in 1hr. Show your work below. (for all questions, include units). . 2. Now, we will find a ratio that tells us how many years of earth's history are represented by 1 second. Show your work below, include units.

1. Methods of determining toxicity and pollution prevention Toxicity is defined as a measure of how harmful any synthetic or natural substance is to a living organism. The study of toxicity is known as toxicology. A toxic substance is referred to as a toxin. People who study the effect of toxic substances are toxicologists. Much of their work includes testing the effects of chemicals on both animals and nonanimals in an effort to collect data that can be used to determine what levels of the substance may be harmful to people and the environment. Toxicologists have a systematic method of categorizing materials in terms of their toxicity. Compare the following three graphs. Graph ____ depicts the method by which scientists determine the effects of toxins on a living organism.
