22) Dothraki formation indicate shallow marine environment because the given fossils are found in shallow marine condition.

23) Chroyane formation indicate deep marine environment because the turbidites show deep marine condition.

24) Sea level rising during deposition because if sediment deposited in sea then water level rise hence it means sea level rise.
