Question

1 students were asked to relate the rock cycle to dinosaur fossil formation. which flowchart best represents the pra heat and pressure convert metamorphic rock to sedimentary rock. ➡ dinosaur remains are deposited in meb dinosaur remains are deposited in sediments. ➡ compaction and cementation of sedimentary rock occurs.c compaction and cementation of sedimentary rock occurs. ➡ dinosaur remains are deposited in sediments.d dinosaur remains are deposited in metamorphic rock. ➡ heat and pressure convert metamorphic rock to se

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Fossils form when organism remains are first buried in sediments. Over time, these sediments undergo compaction and cementation to become sedimentary rock, preserving the fossil. Option A is wrong because heat/pressure make metamorphic, not sedimentary, rock. Option C reverses the correct order (remains must be deposited first). Option D is incorrect because dinosaur remains do not deposit in metamorphic rock, and heat/pressure do not turn metamorphic rock to sedimentary rock.

Answer:

B. Dinosaur remains are deposited in sediments. ➡ Compaction and cementation of sedimentary rock occurs.
