Sometimes fossils can be found in sedimentary rocks. Which statement best explains why?
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer : The remains of dead plants and animals settle to the bottom of an ocean or lake and are covered by mud. Pressure eventually forms these layers into rock.

-

Why? : Basically sedimentary rocks are formed in low temperature, the pressure is low so the remains of any dead plants don't burn or get destroyed.

Igneous rocks form from molten rock and don't really get much fossils in them,

Metamorphic rocks has been under great pressure which fossils would not be able to survive in.

Which option describes what happened at a potlatch? (1 point)
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
Potlatch, ceremonial distribution of property and gifts to affirm or reaffirm social status, as uniquely institutionalized by the American Indians of the Northwest Pacific coast. The potlatch reached its most elaborate development among the southern Kwakiutl from 1849 to 1925. Although each group had its characteristic version, the potlatch had certain general features. Ceremonial formalities were observed in inviting guests, in speechmaking, and in the distribution of goods by the donor according to the social rank of the recipients. The size of the gatherings reflected the rank of the donor. Great feasts and generous hospitality accompanied the potlatch, and the efforts of the kin group of the host were exerted to maximize the generosity. The proceedings gave wide publicity to the social status of donor and recipients because there were many witnesses.
