Question

what three conditions make rocky mountaintop environments unfavorable for forming fossils?
a. there is a lack of sediments.
b. a variety of organisms live there.
c. sloped ground increases erosion.
d. air temperatures are generally cool or cold.
e. most organisms living there have soft bodies.

Explanation:

Fossils form when organisms are buried quickly in sediments. Lack of sediments (A) means less chance of burial. Sloped ground (C) causes erosion, which can remove remains before fossilization. Soft - bodied organisms (E) decay more easily and are less likely to fossilize compared to those with hard parts.

Answer:

A. There is a lack of sediments.
C. Sloped ground increases erosion.
E. Most organisms living there have soft bodies.
