Why can some fossils form in cold temperatures

Biology

goldenfox [79]3 years ago

Answer:

Fossilization is normally a very long and lengthy process during which the fossils of the plants and animals are formed.

but some parts of the world the temperature remains extremely low for the whole year so the animals and plants materials that live in such conditions forms fossil by remaining freeze in the ice.

The entire animal with complete skin, soft body tissue, hard body issue, and sometimes the whole plants remains in ice called as frozen fossils.

In such cold weather the bacterial contamination cannot takes place and the flesh is not putrefied by the bacteria and remains as such for a longer period of time.

How did fossil<br> fuels form, and how<br> are they obtained<br> and used?
Usimov [2.4K]

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are important energy sources for our every day activities.

  Formation of fossil fuels

Fossil fuels forms from the accumulation and burial of organisms in a basin of deposition. Instead of the organisms decaying, they preserve their carbon content. To be worthy of becoming fossil fuels, organisms must be buried in an environment where there is little to no oxygen to fast-track decomposition of the buried organic matter. Increase in temperature and pressure causes the organic matter to transform into fossil fuels.

How are they obtained

First, different fossil fuels have their extraction techniques because they occur in different physical state of matter.

For the solids e.g coal: exploration is carried out first and if a prospect is delineated, mining engineers design the best way to extract the coal from nature. Coal is usually found laid in sedimentary beds in nature. Top layers of sediments can be removed to extract the coal.

For fluids such as crude oil and natural gas, after a prospect is identified, a rig is usually constructed to extract the fluid and gas. The natural pressure allows for the fluids the rise within the drill used in extraction.

How are they used

Coal and gas are used to power electrical generating plants. They are used to heat steams which drives turbines and produce electricity.

Natural gas is used as a domestic fuel for cooking and so also coal.

When crude is processed a lot of product is obtained. Gasoline is used to power most internal combustion engines. Some chemicals useful for manufacturing plastics, drugs e.t.c are also derived from the processed crude.

When roots take up mineral ions, they are built up against their concentration gradient. both anion and cation transport utilize
attashe74 [19]
I believe the answer is B, primary active transport. Root hair cells in plant use active transport to absorb mineral ions such as nitrates from the soil. The concentrations of minerals in the soil are lower in the soil than in within the root hair cell, therefore the transport will be against the concentration gradient which does not favor diffusion, therefore the pant has to use active transport.

Why do organisms die if they do not have enough water?​
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Organisms need water for the following activities: (1) All cellular processes occur due to water. (2) Transportation of substances in our body takes place by dissolving in water. (3) Terrestrial animals require fresh water for transportation of minerals and for getting rid of waste from their body.

Explanation:

Without water they cant do any of this.
