One thing is the age of the surrounding soil/rock.  By carbon dating the fossil, you can determine the age of the layer of rock, because it will be the same age.  You can also determine where a species used to live, and its environment, based on knowledge of location and your knowledge of the ecosystem back then.  You can also determine weather the animal was a carnivore, herbivore, or omnivore, if you have teeth fossils.  A fifth thing is you can tell when the animal was alive, also by carbon dating. Please mark as brainly so i can level up!

Answer:

Photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds, Three main ingredients are required for photosynthesis: water, carbon dioxide, and light. Plants use light energy from the sun to convert six water molecules (6 H2O) and six carbon dioxide molecules (6 CO2) into a molecule of glucose and six molecules of oxygen, Carbohydrates(glucose) and Oxygen is the end product.

Chewed food mixed with saliva is called a _____________, which is swallowed once mastication is complete.
Dominik [7]
Chewed food mixed with saliva is called a Bolus, which is swallowed once mastication is complete. Bolus is the food that has been chewed and mixed in the mouth with saliva. Chewing helps to reduce food particles to a size readily swallowed; saliva adds digestive enzymes, water, and mucus that help chemically to reduce food particles, hydrate them for taste, and lubricate them for swallowing.
