Answer:

The characteristics of fossils that are most useful in correlating sedimentary rock layers are:

Wide geographic distribution but limited to a particular formation.

Explanation:

the reason behind this answer is because the correlation of sedimentary rock layers requires a geographic distribution large enough to preserve all the fossil elements. However, it requires to be only a zone delimited to the body of fossilization because otherwise, it could contain elements from another fossil.

Yuki888 [10]

Oh I know this, It narrows down its characteristics here is an example:

The first step in the key will be organized the following way:

1. a. wings covered by an exoskeleton

b. wings not covered by an exoskeleton

Next, the statements need to lead the observer to the next step to narrow the identification further:

1. a. wings covered by an exoskeleton go to step 2

b. wings not covered by an exoskeleton .go to step 3

Step 2 needs to consist of a pair of statements that will allow for the identification of the ladybug and the grasshopper:

2. a. body has a round shape .ladybug

b<span>. body has an elongated shape .grasshopper</span>
