Mummification frequently preserves fine detail and internal organs. True False
ops! i meant false.sorry!
Mumification preserves the outside of the bodies, and does indeed preserve details. If I remember correcly, back in ancient egypt, the only organ they preserved was the heart. Organs CAN be preserved (as far as I know)... hope that was a little helpful..
so is it false
the first question you asked is false and the second is true. (I'm almost completely positive). sources for the last question: http://www.summum.org/mummification/process.shtml
The body and organs are immersed in a baptismal font filled with a special preservation solution made up of certain fluids, some of which are chemicals used in genetic engineering. The body and organs remain submerged for a period of time. The body and organs are removed from the immersion/baptismal tank. The organs are placed back inside the body and the incision is closed.
Historical geology is primarily the history of the earth's crust. True False
False, I think. While it is a study of the earths history.. it focuses mainly on geological processes that changed the Earth's surface and subsurface
