A. Forensic anthropologist

Explanation:

Forensic anthropologist employs the use of anatomy and sub fields of anthropology to determine specific characteristics of a particular decayed substance. They are also able to find out the stature, age and sex of the decayed substance. They are used in identification of individuals who were burnt beyond recognition and decaying corpses by working on the bones and other available features.
