Answer 1

Here are the matches for the sentences with the missing words:

1. A - Fossils are the remains of a plant or animal that lived long ago.

2. B - Animals and plants that have turned to stone are fossils.

3. 2. - How are fossils formed?

4. D - Fossils are always made from bones only. (This statement is actually misleading; fossils can also come from plants.)

5. A. - Fossils only form in water. (This statement is also misleading; fossils can form in various environments, not just in water.)

• 2. corresponds to the question, without a matching statement.
