Ageologist is studying a rock core sample of a hillside. which would be the best evidence that this hillside was once covered by a body of water? a) the top of the core sample would contain fossils of shells. eliminate b) the bottom of the core sample would be saturated with water. c) the top of the core sample would contain leafy plant material. d) aquatic fossils would be found near the bottom of the core sample.

A geologist is studying a rock core sample of a hillside. Which would be the BEST evidence that this hillside was once covered by a body of water?

A)The top of the core sample would contain fossils of shells.

Top of sample means very recent events so its not good evidence for the past.

B)The bottom of the core sample would be saturated with water.

If the sample is saturated w water, there is water now; not the past.

C)The top of the core sample would contain leafy plant material.

Leafy mat'l has nothing 2 do w water.

D)Aquatic fossils would be found near the bottom of the core sample.

Bottom of sample n aquatic fossils combine 2 make this the best ans.

The ans is D.

their crystal patterns have been disrupted by stress

answer;

d. are made mostly of liquid

explanation;

-the general   composition and structure planets includes; they have a thick gas and liquid layer covering a small,solid core. mostly the gases are hydrogen and helium atmosphere and layers of liquid hydrogen. for instance neptune and uranus are examples of the outer planets, they have a core covered by ice and ammonia.

-neptune's atmosphere is hydrogen and helium with a bit of methane so there is no oxygen to breath and the interior is made up of frozen water and ammonia with a rock and iron core. thus, there is no liquid water or solid surface to survive.
