The answer is D.  In a geological era, when the plants and animals in the then environment die, they get buried in sediments. These sediments are covered by other sediments of another geological time within which are the remains of dead species of the then geological era. These sediments from different geological times have different properties hence form visible strata that can be studied to identify the kind of environment in the then geological time.   Their fossils can also be studied to identify the kind of species that roamed the earth during the time.

Which of the following organic compounds is the main source of energy for living things?a.carbohydratesc.nucleic acidsb.lipidsd.
Alex Ar [27]
Well, carbohydrates burn and release energy. Nucleic acids give identity (like DNA, RNA). Lipids also give energy, but it's more difficult (they must be first turned into carbohydrates first). Proteins are building blocks for the cells.
Now, knowing all of this should make it easy to choose the correct answer :)
