Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Geologic processes cover a vast range of time scales, from very rapid events like earthquakes, which can occur in less than a millisecond, to the slow movement of tectonic plates and the formation of geological features, which can take billions of years. This broad spectrum encompasses virtually all aspects of Earth's physical changes over time.
