Answer:
4. Fossils form in sedimentary rocks
Explanation:
- A <u>fossil expresses the traces or is the remains</u> of prehistoric plant or animal that has died and its body part has been carefully been imprinted on to the surface of the rock that is sedentary as they have the characteristics of the mineral preserving qualities.
- There age , method of formation and evolutionary significance can be well established by the fossil remain in rocks that depict there occurrence throughout the carbon dating of the rocks.
- The <u>process that leads to the formation of fossil is Personalization, casts and molds, recrystallization and Carbonization</u>. Tracing a fossil consisting of digging out the track and burrows.
- Some fossil is found in deposits of resins which complete preserve the fossils from erosion process.
Answer: Cultural combination.
Explanation:
The religions, languages, dress, foods. and customs are all apart or cultural and when two are combined it is known as cultural combination.
As the two plates collide,the denserr oceanic plate will subduct under the less dense continential plate, causing the continential plate to arch up and form a mountain range.
Let's look into it one by one:
A. An underwater mountain range will will run along the boundary on the oceanic plate. - This is false.
As the oceanic plate subducts under the continential plate, there is no chance for the denser material to accumulate while subducting. What would be find instead is ocean trench.
B. A mountain range will form in the middle of the continental plate. - This is false.
Although pressure will be applied and there would be stress accumulating on the continential plate, the middle is very unlikely to be affected.
C. A mountain range will run along the boundary on the continental plate. - This is true.
As the subduction happens, the continential plate will accumulate as it is less dense. The rock would fold up to form mountain ranges. For example, Rockies is one off the mountain range along the plate.
D. A chain of islands will form along the boundary of the oceanic plate. - This is false.
Similarly to A. it is not possible for the plate to accumulate when it slides under the other plate.
Therefore the answer is C. A mountain range will run along the boundary on the continental plate.

<span>The best answer is (d) water from snowmelts. The American Southwest has many mountains that catch moist air moving westward (from the Pacific) that falls as snow during the winter. The snow melts gradually during the spring and summer when there is little precipitation. The melted snow runs off the mountains into rivers and streams that can be tapped by irrigation pumps. The snowmelt also sinks into the ground, replenishing underground aquifers that can be tapped by wells in the valleys where farming takes place.</span>
Answer:
The principle of superposition
Explanation:
The principle of superposition tells you how rock layers are laid.
