  • A. Proterozoic Eon
    The Proterozoic Eon is a major division of Precambrian time, spanning from about 2.5 billion to 541 million years ago, marked by the buildup of atmospheric oxygen, the emergence of complex single-celled and early multicellular life, and the assembly of large continental landmasses.
  • B. Paleozoic Era
    The Paleozoic Era was an ancient geologic time interval, spanning roughly 541 to 252 million years ago, marked by the emergence and diversification of complex life in the seas and on land and the assembly of major continental landmasses.
  • C. Phanerozoic Eon
    The Phanerozoic Eon is the current and most recent major division of Earth's history, marked by abundant fossil evidence and the evolution and diversification of complex life forms, including plants, animals, and eventually humans.
  • D. On the Imperfection of the Geological Record
    "On the Imperfection of the Geological Record" is a chapter in Charles Darwin's *On the Origin of Species* that addresses why the fossil record is incomplete and how this affects evidence for evolutionary change.
