The diagram is a representation of the major division of earths history. The geological timescale is a representation of time elapsed after the formation of earth, divided into slices, each differentiated by a geological event whose record is held in rock samples. Geological time is primarily divided into eons, which are divided into eras, which are further divided into periods. The periods are further divided into epochs, and epochs into ages, while eons are grouped into super-eons. The lengths of these eras are often measured by the term "mya," which represents "millions of years ago. The first three eons are grouped under the Precambrian super-eon. The fourth eon, called the Phanerozoic, is ongoing. Although the first three eons together account for most of Earthaó»s history, stretching out for nearly four billion years, there was little of note in terms of biological activity or geological diversity. So, in representations such as the table above, they are usually collectively called the Precambrian. It contains the Hadeon eon, when Earth was forming and the Late Heavy Bombardment took place; the Archeon eon, when water first showed up and the first lifeforms evolved; the Proterozoic eon, when the first multicellular organisms appeared and Earthaó»s atmosphere received oxygen for the first time as a result of the proliferation of cyanobacteria.

The diagram shows an example of geologic time scale, which is a tool that scientists and historians use to describe and understand the different timeframes of the EarthÕs existence. This geologic time scale shows a timeline of events beginning from the late Proterozoic Era, approximately 650 million years ago. It is divided into eras and periods, and lists the major events that occurred in EarthÕs history each period. From the geologic time scale, we can tell when different creatures evolved and first appeared on Earth. We know that the first amphibians appeared during the Devonian Period in the Paleozoic Era, approximately 400 million years ago. The first dinosaurs appeared during the Triassic Period of the Mesozoic Era, about 250 million years ago. Humans like us only appeared on Earth approximately 2.6 million years ago, during the Quaternary Period of the Cenozoic Era. The human race is very young, considering the Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old!

excretion
DD_0201
This is the diagram representing the human excretory system. The excretory system is a passive biological system that removes excess, unnecessary materials from the body fluids of an organism, so as to help maintain internal chemical homeostasis and prevent damage to the body. It has following parts: The aorta begins at the top of the left ventricle, the heart's muscular pumping chamber. The inferior vena cava is a large vein that carries deoxygenated blood from the lower and middle body into the right atrium of the heart. The kidneys are bean-shaped organs which are present on each side of the vertebral column in the abdominal cavity. The kidney's primary function is the elimination of waste from the bloodstream by production of urine. The ureters are muscular ducts that propel urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder. The urinary bladder is the organ that collects waste excreted by the kidneys prior to disposal by urination. Urethra is a tube which connects the urinary bladder to the outside of the body.

excretion
DD_0202
This is a diagram of the major organs of the excretory system. The kidneys, ureter, bladder, and urethra all play important roles in this system. The kidneys filter blood and produce urine. The kidneys are shaped like beans and are located on each side of the body. After the kidneys, urine enters into the ureter. Then the urine moves into the bladder. When the bladder is about half full, it then releases into the urethra. This is how urine is filtered out of the body.

excretion
DD_0203
The diagram shows the human urinary system. It includes two kidneys, two ureters and a urinary bladder. Blood is filtered by the kidneys to remove waste. Excess water and waste leaves the kidneys in the form of urine through the ureters to the bladder. Contractions of muscles in the ureters move the urine down into the bladder. Urine is excreted from the bladder through the urethra by the process of urination.
