The correct option is- b. Fossils are not deposited in these layers of rocks.

  • Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and cementation of the fragments of old rocks and dead remains of organisms. Hence, they contain fossils.
  • The sediments of old rocks are deposited into layers by depositing agents such as air, water etc. Hence, they are generally flat and soft.
  • Examples of sedimentary rocks are- chalk, sandstone etc.
