Answer:

The correct answer is option C. rocks that form from materials that existed in older rocks.

Explanation:

Sedimentary rocks are small pieces of<u> older rocks </u>(such as igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary)<u> in conjunction with organic remains. </u>

Once they erode, these rocks move across rivers and oceans. While they do, they accumulate sediments that are compressed and heated.

<u>The high temperatures and pressures</u> finally lithify the loose sediment in a sedimentary rock.

What was the most difficult obstacle to overcome in the creation of an autonomous state after Indian independence was achieved?
il63 [147K]

Answer:

D. Indian princes' inability to decide on a format of government

Explanation:

The most difficult obstacle to overcome in the creation of an autonomous state after Indian independence was achieved is "Indian princes' inability to decide on a format of government."

This is evident in the case of the likes of Jammu and Kashmir, Hyderabad State, Junagarh, and Kalat who all had difficulties in accession of their state or territory to the other bigger British Raj territory who has gained independence.

This is because they were originally using a monarchy style of governance before independence and find it hard to determine a format of government to use after independence
