  • Question 6

    An animal is more likely to become fossilized if:

    Solution

    An animal is more likely to become fossilized if an animal dies at sea and sinks deep.

    Fossils are formed in different ways, but most are formed when a plant or animal dies in a watery environment and is buried in mud and silt. Soft tissues quickly decompose leaving the hard bones or shells behind. Over time sediment builds over the top and hardens into rock. It is when the processes of erosion occur that these secrets in stone are revealed to us.

    Hence, the correct option is (B).

    Solution

    Radiocarbon dating can help find the age range of biological specimens no older than 50,000 years.

    The radiocarbon dating method was developed by the American physicist Willard F. Libby in 1946. It has proved to be a versatile technique of dating fossils and archaeological specimens from 500 to 50,000 years old. The method is widely used by Pleistocene geologists, anthropologists, archaeologists, and investigators in related fields.

    Hence, the correct option is (A).
