If glaciers carry a mixture of different clast sizes, why are glacial outwash deposits layered?

Biology
1 answer:
mylen [45]3 years ago
5 0
Glacial outwash deposits layered because clasts fall out of the glacier in size progression. Glaciofluvial sediments are stratified deposits of sand and gravel, glacialy derived, but deposited by streams flowing from the glacier. Glaciolacustrine sediments are generally thinly layered, clay and silt-sized clasts carried by streams and deposited in quiet water.

The body felt cool to the touch. The thermometer gave a reading of 70˚F. No rigor mortis was evident, but permanent livor mortis
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Basically enzyme activities are affected by drop in temperature. in additions the corpse was cool to touch.Therefore this  explains while there was no bloating or bacteria activity since the decomposing  bacteria  enzymes  were inactive because of the cold temperature.

Consequently, if the Livor mortis (lividity) is +8hrs 0-4days, evidently  the corpse must have been refrigerated after livor mortis sets in, with the decomposition slowed down by the cold environment.

Notes: Algor mortis is 26.8hrs, and there was no algor mortis.
