I would say the word would be "decompose". Organic matter for example trees, large ferns of bygone eras etc acted (and still act) as a carbon sink and if they are preserved, they to some extent keep carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere so help to keep oxygen levels higher in the atmosphere. Some forms of preservation are rapid burial and the formation of fossils of ancient organisms.

Katarina [22]

The correct answer is an accumulation of microorganisms in deep marine environments.

Chalk rock refers to a pure form of limestone produced in tropical and warm seas about 100 million years ago in the Cretaceous period. The microscopic marine algae known as coccoliths thrived in the ancient seas. Their shells were comprised of calcite. With the death of the algae, their bodies sunk to the floor of the sea and sediment of chalk got deposited.

Over many years layers of chalk sediment got deposited and resulted in compaction of loose sediment into solid chalk rock.
