What is the source of the calcite found in organically formed limestone?

The calcite found in organically formed limestone comes from the skeletons, shells, and remains of marine organisms such as corals, mollusks, and foraminifera. These organisms extract calcium carbonate from the water to build their calcium carbonate structures, which eventually accumulate and solidify to form limestone rocks.


What is sedimentary rock formed from deposites of shells?

Limestone. However most large masses of limestone formed from coral reefs, not shells. The shell fossils in this limestone are "incidentals" due to shell dwelling organisms living on the periphery of the reef, not the bulk of the limestone.

What is the difference of growth between stalactite and seaweed?

Seaweeds are living organisms, members of the Algae family. Stalactites (and Stalagmites) are formations of limestone which occur in caves, they are not living organisms.


Does the tiniest living organisms have tissue?

No, the tiniest living organisms like bacteria and archaea do not have tissue. They are single-celled organisms that lack the complex structures seen in multicellular organisms.


Sedimentary rocks formed from the remains of once-living things are?

Organic sedimentary rocks, such as limestone and coal, are formed from the remains of once-living things. Limestone is primarily made of calcium carbonate from the shells and skeletal remains of marine organisms, while coal forms from the buildup of plant material in swampy environments over millions of years.


What are the structures of skeletal system?

A bone has a multitude of structures that are not visible to the naked eye. The skeletal system of the body is comprised of bone and cartilage, which are made up of millions of microscopic living cells. Each of these structures has a purpose in keeping us on our feet.


What is sedimentary rock from deposits of shells?

Limestone. However most large masses of limestone formed from coral reefs, not shells. The shell fossils in this limestone are "incidentals" due to shell dwelling organisms living on the periphery of the reef, not the bulk of the limestone.

Why are coal and limestone sometimes referred to as biological rocks?

Coal and limestone are sometimes referred to as biological rocks because they are formed from the remains of once-living organisms. Coal is derived from ancient plant material that has undergone a process of burial and transformation, while limestone is composed of the skeletal remains and shells of marine organisms like corals and mollusks. This biological origin is reflected in the organic nature of these rocks.


Do coral reefs have bones?

Yes. Coral is both the living and skeletal remains of Marine organisms. These in effect are the bones of the animals.


Limestones are only formed from the remains of once-living creatures?

While limestone is mostly composed of the skeletal fragments of deceased marine life, that is not the only component. Limestone also contains traces of clay, sand, and silt. Limestone can also be created by precipitating calcite or aragonite.
