Sediments are squeezed together by the weight of overlying sediments on top of them. This is called compaction. Cemented, non-organic sediments become clastic rocks. If organic material is included, they are bioclastic rocks.

(2)
Fluids fill in the spaces between the loose particles of sediment and crystallize to create a rock by cementation.

Over time plants and animals have developed defenses against being eaten. What are some examples of these defense mechanisms?
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The thorns on a rose bush.

The white coat of a snowshoe hare.

The speed of a gazelle.

Explanation:

Defense mechanisms are the adaptations and modifications in a living organism to counterattack or provide a defense in response. Some modification in the plant and the animals helps them to provide a counterattack to save themselves from the attack. The defensive function of the thorns in the roses helps them from being eaten or crushed. Snowshoe hares have furry feet that are large. The white fur helps them to camouflage during winter in the snow and be safe from the predators. Gazelle is an antelope found in South Africa that is able to make long jumps and make sharp turns while running and saving itself from the predators.
