Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

Fossils are defined as the dead residues of ancient flora and fauna that are buried millions of years ago. They are found to be embedded in the sedimentary rocks. They are useful in determining the relative age of a rock or fossil.

The type of fossil that forms depends on how the organisms have died and the conditions under which the dead organism was buried. The fossils are found as mold and cast, trace fossils and the fossil's true form. If the fossils marks its imprints on the soft sediments then the molds are formed and cast forms when the mineralised sediments gives the shape of the exact fossil by filling up the mold. Trace fossils are formed when the organisms leaves an imprint while they move from one place to another. This is how the fossils and their types are determined.

Thus, the conditions under which these fossils are died and buried is necessary to understand and also these fossils are very important in the field of Paleontology as it helps in understanding the past environment, climate and the organism's food habitat.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

This confused me.
KonstantinChe [14]
The answer is A, denature.

As each type of enzymes has its own optimum temperature, like the temperature that they work fastest at, so if the temperature goes too high above the optimum, the 3D structure of the enzyme breaks apart and deforms and they can no longer bind with substrates thus no longer works. In this scenario, we say the enzyme is denatured.

Note that only if the temperature is too high can make the enzyme denature, if the temperature is too low, instead, the enzyme would be inactive, but once the temperature goes back to normal, they work again. Unlike denatured enzymes, which does not work even if the temperature goes back to normal.
