93. (d) Marine sedimentation is much more continuous than is continental sedimentation (Because the first para suggests that "sedimentation is much less continuous in continental regions")
94. (c) The author describes the common requirements of methods for determining past climatic conditions and then discusses examples of such methods (The author has described various methods, their efficacy for various regions)
95. (c) The high lake levels during the last ice age may have been a result of less evaporation rather than more precipitation (The last line of the second para suggests about "reduced evaporation")
96. (a) A third method for investigating past climatic conditions (The para talks about the "method for determining climatic conditions that existed in the past." Two methods have been described namely 1. the measurement of water levels in ancient lakes and 2. reconstruct former climates on the basis of pollen profiles. So for continuation of the passage a third method could be used for investigating past climatic conditions)
97. (b) provide an example of the uncertainty involved in interpreting lake levels (The second para talks about the ambiguity in this method "since lake levels are controlled by rates of evaporation as well as by precipitation")
98. (d) also reflected subsequent environmental changes (The third criteria for investigation is that "at least some of the material must have retained the signal unaffected by subsequent changes in the environment")
99. (d) I and III only (Out of the four principal criteria, the first is concerned with "correlation with other regions or with other periods of geological history")
100. (a) It is sometimes more difficult to determine past climatic conditions in arid and semiarid regions than in temperate regions (Because the para 2 tells about the difficulty to determine past climatic conditions in arid and semiarid regions in the first method of "the measurement of water levels in ancient lakes" and the para 3 tells about the difficulty in the second method of "reconstructing former climates")
