Answer 1

Answer 61 : b) Rock A : Sedimentary, Rock B : Metamorphic, Rock C : Igneous. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the proper burial and lithification of dead organisms which when subjected to tremendous heat and pressure changes to metamorphic rocks, the melting of which in turn results in the formation of igneous rocks.

Answer 62 : c) Sedimentary rock only. Fossils are mostly preserved in the sedimentary rocks while igneous rocks are always completely devoid of fossils.
