Question

task 3: fossils
even after a fossil is formed, it can be easily destroyed. because the earth is very dynamic, fossils can get:

• it can be buried and crushed by too much sediment
• it can be melted by being buried deeply and undergoing extreme pressure and heat
• it can be moved - washed away by streams, moved by glaciers, carried by scavengers, caught in rock slides, plate tectonics
• it can be eroded through weathering by wind, water, and the sun
• all of the above.

Explanation:

Fossils can be destroyed by excessive sediment burial and crushing. Deep burial with extreme pressure and heat can melt them. Movement via streams, glaciers, scavengers, rock slides, or plate tectonics can displace them. Weathering (wind, water, sun) can erode them. So all these factors can destroy fossils.

Answer:

All of the above.
