Help!!! Participle clause
Teachers, would anyone explain what conjunction these two participle clauses (or adverbial clauses?) stand for? (like because, as, while or so) :
1. Exposure to a certain type of X-ray kills stem cells only, leaving the bone marrow intact.
2. This was usually covered with earth or smaller stones to form a barrow, though in many cases that covering has weathered away, leaving only the stone "skeleton" of the burial mound intact.
Thank you so much!
