The area was once a forest.

The area was uplifted.

The area was buried in sediment.

The area was probably covered by water.

Petrification of a dead plant or animal organisms occurs when rock mineral displaces the organic elements in the structure of the biotic matter or these minerals seep in between the spaces and pores within the dead plant or organism and become part of the material.

Explanation:

Petrification occurs under high pressure. This is why this process occurs in the crust after layers of sediments create enough pressure on the dead organic matter buried in with the sediments. This phenomenon commonly begins on the ocean floor where dead marine life sinks to the bottom and is buried by sediments over many years.  

Occasionally, tectonic plate forces uplift these petrified fossils from deep in the crust exposing them on the surface like in this case.

Secondly, subtract the first sphere number by the second.
The answer is 35 cubic in.

What are the 5 main ways of assessing water quality?
marta [7]

Antidegradation, designated uses, and water quality criteria make up the three parts of water quality standards. The level of water quality required to sustain a certain designated use is represented by water quality criteria.

A probe that can record data at a single moment in time or logged at regular intervals over a long period of time can be used to assess water quality. Water samples can also be taken for laboratory examination. Information on water quality is used by the Department of Water to support decisions regarding the management of water resources. Certain toxins in our water might cause health concerns, such as neurological diseases, reproductive troubles, and gastrointestinal illnesses. People with low immune systems, infants, young children, pregnant women, the elderly, and pregnant women may be particularly susceptible to sickness. A measure of the acceptability of water for a specific application based on chosen physical, chemical, and biological qualities is known as water quality. One of the most crucial indicators of the water quality in streams, rivers, and lakes is dissolved oxygen, or DO. It is an important indicator of water pollution [10]. The greater the water quality, the higher the dissolved oxygen concentration. Oxygen is particularly temperature-sensitive and only mildly soluble in water. Numerous elements, including precipitation, climate, soil type, vegetation, geology, flow conditions, ground water, and human activities, have an impact on water quality. The point sources from businesses and municipalities pose the most risk to the quality of the water. The main causes of water pollution are bacteria, viruses, parasites, insecticides, pharmaceuticals, plastics, feces, radioactive materials, fertilizers, and pesticides. These compounds are frequently invisible contaminants since they do not always alter the colour of the water.
