Oil reserves are the amount of technically and economically recoverable oil. Reserves may be for a well, for a reservoir, for a field, for a nation, or for the world. Different classifications of reserves are related to their degree of certainty.
The total estimated amount of oil in an oil reservoir, including both producible and non-producible oil, is called oil in place. However, because of reservoir characteristics and limitations in petroleum extraction technologies, only a fraction of this oil can be brought to the surface, and it is only this producible fraction that is considered to be reserves. The ratio of reserves to the total amount of oil in a particular reservoir is called the recovery factor. Determining a recovery factor for a given field depends on several features of the operation, including method of oil recovery used and technological developments.[1]
At some convergent boundaries, an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate. Oceanic crust tends to be denser and thinner than continental crust, so the denser oceanic crust gets bent and pulled under, or subducted, beneath the lighter and thicker continental crust. This forms what is called a subduction zone.
<u>Stromatolites are layered mounds of calcium carbonate that were deposited by algae during the Precambrian time.</u>
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
Stromatolites are the deposit of the layer which is mostly of limestone and these are mainly formed by the blue green algae which are only one celled organism of primitive times.
The features of these are that they are normally thin and have layers that might be either light or dark in color and are either flat or some of them even have a shape of a dome.
Classy and smooth is the answer
Not quite sure what you're asking, but erosion and deposition do create land forms. For example: erosion along the coastline may result in the formations of arches, stacks, stumps, wave cut platforms, caves, etc. Deposition, different amount of it and in certain areas, under the influence of either destructive or constructive waves, will form beaches - ones with a lot of beach, through a lot of deposition, or slopes beaches where destructive waves have crashed upon the beach. Hope this is what you're looking for.
