Answer:

C) Underwater organisms in dry land

Explanation:

The listed options are:

A) Large number different-sized footprints.

B) Plant but no animal fossils.

C) Underwater organisms in dry land.

D) Straight teeth buried below curved teeth.

Discovering fossils of underwater organisms in dry land demonstrates that thousands to millions of years ago, there was a body of water such as an ocean, lake, or river in an area that is now dry land. This gives important insights into what was the Earth's climate at that epoch and how it has changed throughout time.

This discovery could allow researchers to study what the conditions were at that time and why that body of water dried out. Moreover, it could lead to answers of the reasons behind the extinctions or evolution of some underwater organisms.

In a fixed volume when temperature increases , pressure does what?

Leni [432]

Answer:

When the volume is constant the pressure increases with temperature. 

Explanation:

Gay Lussac’s law precisely explains the relation between pressure and temperature of a system which has constant volume. In a system which has constant volume an increase in temperature indicates increase in temperature as well.

The reason behind the observation of this trend is the change in randomness of particles of the system. 

With increase in temperature the particle movement becomes random and fast. The particles hit the container walls at an increased rate and the pressure of the system increase.

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. helps process explicit memories for storage.

Explanation:

The hippocampus is an structure of the brain and is located inside the temporal lobe. The main function of the hippocampus is to mediate the generation and recovery of memories in conjunction with many areas spread across the cortex and with other areas of the limbic system. It helps to process and recover the episodic memory (those related to events) and spatial memory (mode in which we perceive space or dimensions). This organ is also where short-term memories become long-term memories, that is, it acts as a mediator of memories, acting as an activation node that allows different memories distributed across different parts of the brain to be activated.
