Excerpt from ancient evidence
clark benson
through the efforts of paleontologists, or researchers who look for
evidence of ancient plants and animals, millions of fossils have been
discovered across the globe. simply defined, fossils are the remains of a
living thing and are usually encased in stone. they include the remains
from prehistoric living things, ranging from woolly mammoths, to
prehistoric fish, to dinosaurs. it can take thousands, if not millions of
years for a fossil to form. this is why, even today, so many fossils remain
and allow us to find evidence of animals that roamed the earth even
before humans came into the picture
es -
fossils teach people things they did not know about life long ago because
a)
scientists are not able to track the age of fossils today!
humans could not record information about life in those times
animals today will not be able to leave fossils behind in the future
dj
fossils no longer exist because dinosaurs no longer live on the planet

How does gregor feel about his fathers transformation?

Based on the passage witch values seem to be most important to the maori

Read sentence 13 from the draft. some plants retain a great deal of their foliage through much of the spring and summer, but the leaves do not retain their green color for long. which detail would be best to add after sentence 13 to develop the topic? a. since the green color of the leaves that are bright and abundant during the warmer months will disappear by the time it is fall, it is important that the leaves are trimmed and kept freshly cut so that they will last for as long as possible. b. while the temperature outside may dictate when the fall colors of leaves appear, it is only one of many environmental factors that play a part in the changing of colors from green leaves to fall-colored leaves during the cooler months. c. if people want to enjoy the green color of leaves longer, trees should be planted where the environment is warmer and the days longer because chlorophyll in the leaves can only be manufactured and replaced with sunlight and warmth. d. the green chlorophyll normally masks the fall-colored pigments during the warmer months, but as sunlight becomes less abundant and trees become frozen, the fall colors of leaves become more visible as chlorophyll disappears.
