What are some of the major events in the 4.6 billion year geological history of Earth? What evidence could be found in rock strata that would support the occurrence of major events in the geological history of Earth?

From the point at which the planet first began to form, the history of Earth spans approximately 4.6 billion years. The oldest known rocks—the faux amphibolites of the Nuvvuagittuq greenstone belt in Quebec, Canada—however, have an isotopic age of 4.28 billion years. There is in effect a stretch of approximately 300 million years for which no geologic record for rocks exists, and the evolution of this pregeologic period of time is, not surprisingly, the subject of much speculation. To understand this little-known period, the following factors have to be considered: the age of formation at 4.6 billion years ago, the processes in operation until 4.3 billion years ago, the bombardment of Earth by meteorites, and the earliest zircon crystal
Some of the major events in the 4.6 billion years that Earth has existed are reptiles and flowering plants becoming existent, dinosaurs going extinct, and Pangea forming then breaking apart. Evidence of fossils of extinct species of animals and plants found in rock strata would support the occurrence of major events in the geologic history of Earth.
4.6 billion years ago all of the dinosaurs went extinct. And animals started to enter the world. The evidence for that is that there is fossils to find under the ground, you can easily check out the fossils to see when they went extinct.
Some of the Evidence that we could see to show us some major events could be That the one of the rarest rocks were Fund on the surface of the earth so It's ideal that the Rock came from outer space

It is widely accepted by both geologists and astronomers that Earth is roughly 4.6 billion years old. This age has been obtained from the isotopic analysis of many meteorites as well as of soil and rock samples from the Moon by such dating methods as rubidium–strontium and uranium–lead. It is taken to be the time when these bodies formed and, by inference, the time at which a significant part of the solar system developed. When the evolution of the isotopes of lead-207 and lead-206 is studied from several lead deposits of different age on Earth, including oceanic sediments that represent a homogenized sample of Earth’s lead, the growth curve of terrestrial lead can be calculated, and, when this is extrapolated back in time, it is found to coincide with the age of about 4.6 billion years measured on lead isotopes in meteorites. Earth and the meteorites thus have had similar lead isotope histories, and so it is concluded that over a period of about 30 million years they condensed or accreted as solid bodies from a primeval cloud of interstellar gas and dust—the so-called solar nebula from which the entire solar system is thought to have formed—at about the same time.
The extinction between the Mesozoic era and the paleozoic era, the Cenozoic era, and the extinction of the dinosaurs between the Paleozoic era and the Cenozoic era.

Dinosaurs going extinct you just have to find the bones in the ground.
Dinosaurs going extinct you just have to find the bones in the ground.
Lots of stuff happened in the past years and dinosaurs are now extinct.
Dinsoaurs being exctinct. The dinos fossils are in the ground somewhere.
Dinosaurs going extinct you just have to find the bones in the ground.
Dinasours died out, the bones/fossils are everywhere on the earth except for the oceans.
Pangea started to slit apart.
one of the examples is the dinosaurs going extinct and very old rocks are still on the earth.
the dinosaurs dieing (exctint) then the the dinosaurs bones are in the ground and u have to find them
200 million years ago the Earth had it's first birds and bees, and plants began to flower.

Organic evolution this is proven by any type of fossil.
The Ice Age occurred in the latest Era and Scientists have found Mammoth Tusks in the most recent layer of rock.
4.6 billion years ago all of the dinosaurs went extinct. And animals started to enter the world. The evidence for that is that there is fossils to find under the ground, you can easily check out the fossils to see when they went extinct.

Dinosaurs were going extinct and finding them.
Dinosaurs are extinct
Dinosaurs were goin extinct and find them

The extinction between the Mesozoic era and the paleozoic era, the Cenozoic era, and the extinction of the dinosaurs between the Paleozoic era and the Cenozoic era.
Dinosaurs went extinct and evidence in the strata would be shells, bones, fossils etc.
Dinosaurs were going extinct and then you find the bones in the ground.

Some big events are dinosaurs and The first humans
.
Dinosaurs going extinct you just have to find the bones in the ground
In the mesozoic era the humans came to be.
Dinosaurs are extinct.

we can find evidence of dinosaurs today
The first major event from the beginning of our solar system is the Big Bang, when our solar system was formed from solar debris. Evidence is that millions of astroids and other debris still floating around in space from the Big Bang.
some major events were simply just the dawn of the dinosaurs.
Dinosaurs went extinct and there are fossils of them in the ground.
Lots of stuff happened in the past years and dinosaurs are now extinct.
Fossils are something you could find in the rock strata.
Major events in Earths history are events affecting the surface of the Earth and the evolution and extinction of life forms.
Dinosaurs going extinct you just have to find the bones in the ground and look around theres no more dinosaurs around.
vertebra
Dinosaur
3800 million years ago the earliest life was discovered. Fossils found at a point and behind that there was no evidence of life is supporting this fact.
Dinosaurs roamed the land, and they died, going extinct.
a big meator hit and all the dinosaurs are dead
find the bones you find out when it lived and died
Dinosaurs went extinct and evidence in the strata would be shells, bones, fossils
Dinosaurs went extinct and evidence in the strata would be shells, bones, fossils etc.
Dinosaurs went extinct, and the evidence is bones of the dinosaurs in the ground.
Dinosaurs are extinct
The dinosaurs became extinct, and their fossils were found.
puppy monkey lettuce baby
Dinosaurs were going extinct and also finding them.

it all started with a big bang
the extinction between the mesozoic and the paleozoic
EXtinction
