Answer:

Fossils of mollusks would be found in lower strata than that of arthropods

Explanation:

Fossils are found in different layers of sedimentary rocks. The fossils of organisms that evolved earlier are found in the lower strata while those evolved later are preserved as fossils in the upper strata.  If mollusks evolved before arthropods, fossils of arthropods would be present in upper layers while those of mollusks would be found in deeper layers.

Mollusk fossils will be below arthropod fossils because the law of superposition states that sedimentary rock is formed in layers upward, so basically older is lower than newer

Compare and contrast kelp forests and coral reefs
Fynjy0 [20]
Both kelps and coral reefs are composed of algae that grow in the shallow parts of the ocean in warm and sunny waters. However, kelp forest grows in nutrient-rich waters while corals can develop in low nutrient waters.
Kelp forests are therefore common where warm and cold current meet in an up-welling. Coral reefs are borne of a symbiotic relationship between coral polyps and algae. The coral forms a rigid carbon skeleton of calcium carbonate while kelps are long flexible algae plants.
