What is a fence diagram?
A fence diagram is geologic cross section that allows easy visualization of the stratigraphic changes in subsurface conditions. The data used to create fence diagrams comes from soil samples or rock cores obtained from borings done by engineers or geoligists.
How do you find area of section?
The answer depends on what the section is of.
Acres in a section of land?
1 section = 640 acres. A quarter section = 160 acres.
What are the dimensions of a room if the volume is 150m cubed?
The volume does not provide enough information. First, there is nothing in the question to indicate whether the room is cuboid in shape or cylindrical. Furthermore, even if the room were cuboid, or it could be in the form of a cube or a very long narrow tunnel (with a rectangular cross section).
What has a circular cross section when the cross section is taken parallel?
A cylinder has a circular cross section that is parallel to its base.
A gap in the geologic record formed when sedimentary rocks cover an eroded surface is called an?
unconformity. It represents a period of missing time in the rock record, where deposition was not continuous due to erosion or non-deposition of sediment layers.
When did Section Z happen?
Section Z happened in 1985.
What is the difference between a topographic profile and a geologic cross section?
A topographic profile is a plot showing the shape of the surface of the ground (so hills, hillocks, dips, valleys and the like). Whereas a geologic cross section shows the order and structure of soils and / or rocks below the ground surface. Geologic sections are typically created by first drawing a topographic profile of the section of interest then adding in the underlying strata. An example of the way they are created is given in the related links.
What are the guidelines used to determine the relative age of a rocks and events shown by a geologic cross-section?
The guidelines used to determine the relative ages of the rocks and events shown by a geologic cross-section is the Law of Superposition. It is the basic law of geochronology.
What section of the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) manual will you find the codes to indicate the service of venipuncture?
In Medical Coding and Billing section of the Current Terminology manual will I find the codes to indicate the service of venipuncture?
What has the author W Wickham King written?

What are four large section on the geologic time scale called?
The four large sections on the geologic time scale are eons, eras, periods, and epochs. Each of these divisions represents a different scale of time with eons being the largest and epochs being the smallest.
What percentage would you assign to each section of the graph?
Would you please indicate where we can see the graph when you resubmit your question.
Why do geography need contours and cross section drawing?
Contour maps are used to show the below ground surface of geologic strata, fault surfaces (especially low angle thrust faults) and unconformities. Isopach maps use isopachs (lines of equal thickness) to illustrate variations in thickness of geologic units.
What are the guidelines used to determine the relative ages of the rocks and events shown by a geologic cross section?
The guidelines used to determine the relative ages of the rocks and events shown by a geologic cross-section is the Law of Superposition. It is the basic law of geochronology.
