Answer: Minerals

Explanation: The body decomposes and after about 40 to 50 years bones are mostly brittle and dry with no traces of flesh. After thousands of years bones also disintegrate (decay) leaving brittle mineral frame. The life of bones is determined by the soil type its buried in, nuetral soils takes longer then acidic soil condition.

In this case osteocytes(bone cells) are the first to decompose followed by the cartilage and bone marrow, leaving behind mineral traces that scientist can study after thousand years.

Vegan vegetarians must rely on complimenting proteins in order to get all the essential amino acids. choose the best combination
liubo4ka [24]
If you want a complete protein in one food, tofu is probably your best bet. However, since you're probably not going to want to eat that every day, the best thing to do is eat a variety of high protein foods. Mix your proteins in order to get complete proteins. So, have say a grain (quinoa, millet, or brain rice are good) and have it with beans, or tempeh, or seitan, or nuts, etc. If you search for specific foods on that site, it'll show you which of the amino acids that food contains, and let you search for foods with complementary proteins. So if you want to be extra sure you're getting enough complete proteins, check what you're eating to see the amino acids in all of the different foods.
