Answer:

Fossils would be most likely to be found in a limestone.

Explanation:

Fossils are the remaining parts, impressions or any kind of evidence of the activities of any kind of organisms found within the rock record. Igneous and metamorphic rocks are subjected to very high temperatures, so they do not contain fossils. Sedimentary rocks are the only rocks that contain fossils.

limestone is a type of sedimentary rock of composition mainly of calcium carbonate in the form of  mineral calcite. It is most commonly formed in clear, warm, shallow marine waters .

Fossil formation can take over millions of years .

Hence, the correct statement formed is -

Fossils would be most likely to be found in a limestone.

HOW CAN SUBSIDENCE LEAD TO THE FORMATION OF SEDIMENTARY ROCK?
worty [1.4K]
<span>Subsidence changes the base level allowing further sedimentation. Augmented burial results in ever cumulative heat and pressure as the sediments are compressed. For sandstones, the augmented pressure of compaction outcomes in heaviness solution of the quartz grains. The silica unconfined from this procedure forms quartz overgrowths inside the pores efficiently cementing the sand grains together. If the procedure lasts, the sandstone will finally form quartzite.</span>

Chapter 6 problem: What is the damage one can expect from a catastrophic hurricane? Give a detailed list from your text.
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

-Homes destroyed

-Fallen trees and power poles

-Power outages

-Uninhabitable area

Explanation:

The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale is a 1 to 5 rating based on a hurricane's sustained wind speed, which is useful to estimates the potential property damage. From category 3 and higher, we consider them major hurricanes because of their potential for significant loss of life and damage.

Category 4 (209-251 km/h) and category (252 km/h or higher) hurricanes can cause catastrophic damages, <em>these include high percentage of framed homes will be destroyed (total roof failure and wall collapse), fallen trees and power poles will isolate residential areas, power outages that last for weeks to months and most of the area will be uninhabitable for weeks or months.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
