Answer:

Option (1)

Explanation:

Sedimentary rocks are usually defined as those rocks where the sediments are deposited, thereby undergone compaction and lithification. These rocks are comprised of fossils at different places. It is because they are soft sediments and the fossilized materials are preserved in it.

The sediments or the broken rock fragments are formed due to the combination of weathering and erosion process, and these sediments are then transported to some other places by the agents such as wind, water, and ice.

After these sediments are deposited in a new place they are subjected to compaction and often minerals are embedded on it, and after solidification, gives rise to the formation of sedimentary rocks.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).

How does carbon move between the atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and geosphere?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

See it in the explanation

Explanation:

1) Carbon moves from atmosphere to hydrosphere and biosphere in the process of photosynthesis and to lithosphere by deposition of dead bodies while from hydrosphere and biosphere, carbon can be move in the process of respiration by animals.

2) During respiration process which takes place in plants in which carbondioxide is released and by eating carbon containing food by animals. By decomposing the food, carbon is releases in the form of carbondioxide.

3) Carbon can be used by the marine plants in the process of photosynthesis and during the process of diffusion, carbon is also dissolve in water bodies.

4) When the plants and animals die, the carbon which is present inside their body is buried in the soil present at the bottom of the ocean and the shells and corels of some animals also contain carbon which is soon be the part of the lithosphere when they die.

5) After the decomposition of seashell, carbondioxide is produced because shells are made up of calcium carbonate.
