The answer is hard tissue.

Usually, hard tissue, such as bones and teeth or exoskeleton is much more preserved than soft tissue (organs, skin, etc.). Fossils become fossils by a process of mineralization. Hard tissues are more mineralized during life than organs. So it is no surprise that hard tissues take part in the process of mineralization and is preserved in fossils, unlike soft tissues.

nydimaria [60]

Which of the following serves as an electron carrier in cellular respiration?
GrogVix [38]

Answer;

-NAD+

Explanation;

-When glucose breaks down into ATP, a large amount of the energy is stored as electron on special molecules (the electron carriers). When an empty electron carrier accepts a pair of electrons, it is reduced; when it gives those electrons up later on, it is oxidized.

-NAD+ and FAD; also the two most common electron carriers in the body. NAD+ can accept a pair of electrons (and a hydrogen ion) to become NADH.
