that layers of sediment were originally deposited horizontally under the action of gravity
The features or characteristics of organic compounds include:
1. They contain covalent bonds and are mostly non polar in nature
2. Have lower boiling and melting points than inorganic compounds
3. Many organic compounds are thermally unstable, They decompose into simpler molecules when heated at fairly high temperatures
4. Most organic compounds are inflammable and burn exothermically in sufficient air to yield carbon dioxide, water and heat energy.
5. Most organic compounds being largely non polar are insoluble in water.
Answer: Atoms were created after the Big Bang 13.7 billion years ago. As the hot, dense new universe cooled, conditions became suitable for quarks and electrons to form. Quarks came together to form protons and neutrons, and these particles combined into nuclei.
