How does the structure of a nonconformity show geologists that there was a lapse in the record of time?
A) Carbon-dating radioactive tests on the rocks shows that a lapse in time occurred. B) The coal seam between layers must have taken millions of years to form. C) Rock must have eroded away because the metamorphic or igneous rocks underneath were formed at great depth, not near the surface. D) The fossil record shows missing specimens.

Explain how radioactive decay has always warmed the earth from the inside, and nuclear fusion has always warmed the earth from the outside
A) Much heat was released as matter coalesced to form the earth. This heat resulted in the production of radioactive isotopes, which still reside within the earth today and are a source of internal heat. Our primary external source of heat is from the fusion of hydrogen within the sun. B) The inner Earth is made of fissioning heavy elements while the sun is made of lighter fusing elements. C) Radioactive elements have been within Earth since it was created while the sun is made of fusing hydrogen atoms. D) All of the above are reasonable answers.
