The choices are:

A) Fossils are preserved in the rocks formed from the sediments deposited by rivers.

B)The bodies of organisms get preserved due to the dry weather conditions in the state.

C)The bodies of the organisms were preserved as lava from ancient volcanoes solidified into rock.

D) The erosion caused by the flooding of the Mississippi River ensures that the bodies of the organisms are well preserved.

Answer:

The answer is letter A, Fossils are preserved in the rocks formed from the sediments deposited by rivers.

Explanation:

"Fossils" are regarded as the<em> organism's preserved remains. </em>The remains of ancient organisms are embedded into the "sedimentary rocks." These rocks are comprised of layers of sediments or organic particles that settle into the earth or ocean.

In the situation above, the remains or fossils of whales and other organisms were embedded or deposited into the sediments in the river beds. This explains why their fossils were found in the southern parts of Mississippi.

How does an r group determine if an amino acid is acidic basic or nonpolar?
Alinara [238K]
<span>R group (or side chain) is an organic component of amino acids that is unique to each amino acid. </span> <span>Three of the amino acids have basic side chains at neutral pH: arginine (Arg), lysine (Lys), and histidine (His). Their side chains contain nitrogen and resemble ammonia, which is a base and their pKa's are high enough that they tend to bind protons, (positive charge). Aspartic acid or aspartate (Asp) and glutamic acid or glutamate (Glu) are acidic amino acids because their side chains have carboxylic acid groups whose pKa's are low enough to lose protons, (negatively charged). The non-polar amino acids contain uncharged functional groups<span> at physiological pH and are incapable of participating in hydrogen bonding. </span></span>

List three pieces of evidence for Pangaea.
kari74 [83]

Answer:The rock formations of eastern North America, Western Europe, and northwestern Africa were later found to have a common origin, and they overlapped in time with the presence of Gondwanaland. Together, these discoveries supported the existence of Pangea.When Rodinia broke up, it split into three pieces: the supercontinent of Proto-Laurasia, the supercontinent of Proto-Gondwana, and the smaller Congo craton. Proto-Laurasia and Proto-Gondwana were separated by the Proto-Tethys Ocean.

Don't take my full word on it, this is what i think
