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.

According to our theory of solar system formation, what three major changes occurred in the solar nebula as it shrank in size?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

D.It got hotter, its rate of rotation increased, and it flattened into a disk

Explanation:

The nebula theory proposes that our solar system was born about 4.6billion years ago out of a gigantic interstellar cloud.

These interstellar gases are made up of some gases and some microscopic particles. The gravitational pull by the particles caused the cloud to collapse inward. The collapse triggered increase in temperature and the rate of rotation spiked. This caused the collapsed cloud to flatten into a disk with a centre bulge which later forms the sun.
