The correct answer is Carbonization.

There are many types by which the formation of fossils can takes place. Out of this one is carbonization in which a fossil is formed by the compression of dead organisms over time. The time and pressure takes off the liquids and gases from the organisms and only the carbon in the organism is left behind.

This is called as carbonization.

Identify three environmental influences on microbial growth. How does each affect microbial distribution?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

1.Temperature

2.Moisture

3. PH: acidic or basic concentration

Explanation:

Different microorganism grow at different temperature. For example, many human-disease-causing microbes have an optimum temperature of 37C, and most of the bacteria do not grow at temperature higher than 45C. This means that any temperature lower than 45C will favor the growth of certain bacteria while higher temperature may cause death or reduction in the population of most. Hence, the effect of temperature on these organisms.

Water is required to dissolve the cell substances in microorganism just like higher animals.  while some can survive under an extremely dry condition, most can't and this could result in death or reduction in population.

PH, a measure of the hydrogen concentration in a solution for most microorganism is between 6-8, too much of acid or base could disrupt the activities of these organisms and a maintained range ensure an optimal survival.

Describe the function of sodium and potassium in the generation of an action<br> potential.
larisa [96]

Answer:

The inward flow of sodium ions increases the concentration of positively charged cations in the cell and causes depolarization, where the potential of the cell is higher than the cell's resting potential. The sodium channels close at the peak of the action potential, while potassium continues to leave the cell.
