Fossils similar to marine life found in the oceans today have been found in rocks on top of mountains. how can this be explained?
the rocks in which the fossils were found were formed under an ocean.
marine organisms have evolved from land organisms.
marine organisms were once able to breathe air.
the marine life can live on land or sea.

The rocks in which the fossils were found were formed under an ocean.

Explanation:

Water offers better conditions for fossilization because it carries dissolved minerals and sediments. They are the ingredients of sedimentary rocks, which can be built on the ground, from the sands of the dunes, for example. But the most common are formed under the sea, or in lakes and rivers. It is not surprising, therefore, that most fossils are formed on the seabed. To find marine fossils on dry land, something must have happened for rocks to rise, for low tides, or both. For this reason, when the fossil of a marine organism is found on dry land, we can conclude that the rocks on which the fossils were found were formed under an ocean.

colorectal cancer may also develop from areas of abnormal cells in the lining of the colon or rectum. this area of abnormal cells is called dysplasia and is more commonly seen in people with certain inflammatory diseases of the bowel such as crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.
