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.

irina [24]

Answer:

A) To make sure that the effect is not occuring through actions in the nervous system

Explanation:

In the above scenario, researchers actually studies the effect of hormone to the organ but they are in a situation to study the effect on organ are either hormone base or nervous system base (neurons). For this reason they will cut the neurons to study the effect of hormone on the organ.

So, to check the effect of hormone they should cut the neurons to make sure these effect are not due to actions of nervous system.
