The correct answer is - D. Materials are transported through erosion and are dropped in another location.

The process of deposition basically is a process in which the materials are left, dropped, deposited somewhere. This process needs two other processes to occur first in order for it to be possible. The first one is the weathering, the process in which the materials are broken down into smaller pieces. The second one is the erosion, the process in which the material is moved away from its initial location. Once the material is moved by certain agents (wind, water for example) it will eventually stop moving because of the loss of force of the agent. Once the agent losses its force it will not be able to carry the material anymore, thus the material will be dropped off, or rather deposited at those places.

Which statement explains something that the fossil record indicates? Earth is 4. 5 billion years old. Mammals have always existe
Charra [1.4K]

The statement "Mass extinctions have occurred several times on Earth" explains the indication of the fossil record.

<h3>Indication of Fossil fuels:</h3>

Paleontologists are fascinated by the evolution and extinction of fossil species throughout geologic history. To do so, they look at all the fossils that have been preserved in sedimentary rocks.

The fossil record is what we call it. Paleontologists have been collecting fossils from sedimentary rock layers all over the world for over two centuries.

Their goal is to figure out how species have evolved over geologic time. It can be used as a geologic timescale once the succession is established.

Then, if a specific fossil is discovered in a rock, you can determine where it belongs on the geologic timescale.

Therefore, the correct option is the third sentence.
