Question

____ are remains of life from an earlier time.
sedimentary rocks
fossils
variations
limestones

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Sedimentary rocks: Are types of rocks formed by sediment accumulation, not direct life remains.
• Fossils: By definition, are the preserved remains (or traces) of organisms from earlier times.
• Variations: Refer to differences in traits, not life remains.
• Limestones: A type of sedimentary rock, not life remains.

So the correct option is the one that matches the definition of life remains from earlier times.

Answer:

B. Fossils
