Index fossils are used to determine the relative ages of rock and fossils and are also used to define the boundaries between geologic periods.
<u>Option: A</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
The fossils which are recognized as fossils guides or indicator fossils are used to classify and recognize geological or faunal periods, termed as index fossils. It must be of short vertical reach, wide geographic distribution and swift patterns in evolution. It helps to assess the rock layers ' age and helps to date other fossils found close and around them. For an instance, Ammonites were abundant in the Mesozoic period between 245 to 65 mya, they have not been found after the Cretaceous era, as they became endangered during the K-T extinction (65 mya).

I believe you are right. pH is the concentration of H+. Therefore the more acidic the more H+.
Answer:
Global dependence on fossil fuels has associated social costs.
Explanation:
Increased dependence on fossil fuels reduces their availability. When the demand is high and the availability is low, the price rises. Not every nation would then be able to afford buying fossil fuels at such high costs.
Developing and underdeveloped countries would then be left behind and only the wealthy nations would be able to afford fossil fuel purchase. This would be the immediate impact of global dependence on fossil fuels.
Fossil fuels are mainly coal, petroleum and natural gas. Since fossil fuels are non-renewable in nature over exploitation may lead to fossil fuels getting exhausted.
