1. How do fossils form?

Biology
1 answer:
noname [10]2 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

There is a LOOOONG process for this so here it is;  

First things first.The animal dies. Soft parts of the animal's body, including skin and muscles, start to rot away. Scavengers may come and eat some of the remains.  Before the body disappears completely, it is buried by sediment - usually mud, sand or silt. Often at this point only the bones and teeth remain.  Many more layers of sediment build up on top. This puts a lot of weight and pressure onto the layers below, squashing them. Eventually, they turn into sedimentary rock.  While this is happening, water seeps into the bones and teeth, turning them to stone as it leaves behind minerals.  This process can take thousands or even millions of years.

I hope this answer helped. Thank you!

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Plasmolysis

Explanation:

In the image 1 the cell is having sufficient quantity of water leading to a turgid cell.

The image 1 plant cell is in a dilute solution in which water enters into cell from external medium.

The image 2 plant cell is exposed to a solution which is high concentrated solution.

Due to this high concentrated  solution the water present in  the cell is send out by exosmosis.

Due to loss of water from plant cells the protoplasm in plant cell shrinks in which cell membrane gets separated from  cell wall.

This shrinkage of protoplasm by loss of water is called plasmolysis.

How does conduction heat the atmosphere
podryga [215]

Heat from the Earth's core and radiation from the Sun is transferred to the surface of the Earth by conduction. Contact of the atmosphere with these warm surfaces transfers thermal energy, which then heats up the rest of the air through convection.

The atmosphere is also slightly heated by absorption of electromagnetic radiation from the Sun. The warm land and water radiates infrared, some of which is absorbed by the atmosphere, adding to its thermal energy. The remaining heat on the surface is sent out into space in the form of infrared radiation.
