In what direction were the forces that squeezed fossil B?Based on the original length,estimate how much distortion the fossil has undergone.Give your answer as a percentage. If anyone will answer my question,Thank you!❤️​

The direction of the force exerting fossil B and based on the actual length of the fossil is distorted by:

  • Pennsylvanian age rocks of the East Appalachian Plateau Philips burg quadrangle have been shortened by 10 percent of the northwest-southeast direction as evidenced by the distortion of the fossil Lingula carbonaria.
  • The distortion of the skeletal remains is characterized by changes in the dimensions of width / length, small joints, and minute N.
  • 44 ° E. to N. 58 ° E. oriented crinkles not from surrounding clay and silt shale surfaces.
  • Shales apparently prepared the contraction shown by the fossils by inter granular movements.
  • The distortion of fossils and the shortening of incoming stones are interpreted as the first episode of lateral tectonism where the rocks meet side by side before the onset of large folds.
  • Associated structures are structural members that cut through the crinkles at 75 ° -90 °.
