Paleontologists have discovered bodies of humans and animals in bogs that have been there for hundreds of years in a perfectly preserved state. Explain the reason for this.

 

A. Bogs have high oxygen content and organic acids, which lowers the pH. Low pH and high oxygen content prevents oxidation thus, slowing down decomposition.

 

B. Bogs have low oxygen content and organic acids, which increases the pH. High pH and low oxygen content prevents oxidation thus, slowing down decomposition.

 

C. Bogs have low oxygen content and organic acids, which lowers the pH. Low pH and low oxygen content prevent oxidation, thus slowing down decomposition.

 

D. Bogs have low oxygen content and organic acids, which lowers the pH. Low pH and low oxygen content prevents reduction, thus slowing down decomposition.
