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
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.
