Answer:

The statement, that is, the fossil record does not contain any fossil remains of plants, only animals is false.

Explanation:

Any trace of past life is termed as the fossil. It can be an organism's remains like shells, plants, bones, or teeth. Any activity of an organism like burrows, footprints, and feces can be known as a fossil record. Five different ways by which the formation of a fossil takes place are natural casts, permineralization, trace fossils, amber preserved, and preserved remains.  

The formation of a fossil distinctly takes place, however, the majority of them formed when an animal or plant dies in a watery environment and gets buried underneath the silt and mud. In the process, the soft tissues quickly get decompose and leave behind the shells or hard bones. With time accumulation of sediments takes place over the top and solidifies into a rock.

Which systems work together to cool the body?
REY [17]
 <span>Human skin is one of the more important cooling systems. Unlike many other mammals, humans have sweat glands. These cool the surface of the skin by evaporating water. Body heat is carried to the surface of the skin by the circulatory system. Humans also have finer hair than other animals. We are actually as hairy as chimpanzees, but our hair is so fine it makes us appear to have none. This lack of dense hair allows the skin to evaporate sweat more efficiently. Another human cooling mechanism is our posture. Walking upright means only a small portion of the body is exposed to direct sun during the hottest part of the day. Our ancestors were thought to scavenge during this period because preditors had to escape the sun. Walking on 4 legs meant the entire surface of the back was exposed to the sun.A uniquely human adaptation to heat is the scalp. Blood vessels run directly from the surface of the brain through pores in the skull and out across the head and face. This serves to cool the brain. Humans have enromous brains which generate quite a lot of heat. This system of veins serves like a kind of radiator, keeping the brain from overheating. It also explains why head injuries tend to bleed so profusel</span>

Discribe how a neutral atom changes when the number of protons,neutrons,or electrons change
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Depends on what you are changing.

Explanation:

Protons have a positive (+) charge.

Neutrons have a neutral (0) charge.

Electrons have a negative (-) charge.

Since neutrons only affect atomic mass, we don't need to worry about it changing the charge.

If we had more protons than electrons, then since there are more + charges, the entire atom would be positively charged.

If we had more electrons than protons, then since there are more - charges, the entire atom would be negatively charged.
