What types of fossils does not form in sediments?
Well there are 3 types of fossils: Petrified Fossils, Molds and Cast, and Preserved Remains. Petrified Fossils are the organisms buried in the layers of sediment. Molds and Casts are the organisms, like shells, buried by sediments, in which they gradually dissolve. Preserved Remains are the organisms preserved in other substances. For example, entire organisms, such as huge elephant-like mammoths that lived thousands of years ago, have been preserved in ice. Therefore, Preserved Remains is a major type of fossil that does not form in sediments. This can be formed by decades of being stuck in the ice age and eventually falling through the ice and never getting out. Since you cant get out you get frozen! Being frozen and preserved in another type of substance in called... Preserved Remains! --Hope this could help. Thanks for reading.:)

What are five ways organisms can be preserved as a fossil?
Successful fossilization or preservation of an organism can occur in several ways: (1) preservation without change; (2) complete replacement by a mineral; (3) filling in of a hollow space by a mineral; (4) formation of a thin film of carbon; and (5) formation of an imprint or the filling in of an imprint.

How many ways can you arrange 6 things but one remains stationary?
The answer is 5 factorial or 5*4*3*2*1 or 120
When divided by 7 remains 0 when divided by 6 remains 5 when divided by 5 remains 4 when divided by 4 remains 3 when divided by 3 remains 2when divided by 2 remains?
If, when divided by 4 the remainder is 3, then when divided by 2, the remainder must be 1.
Name two ways protists get food?
1) producers- get food by photosynthesis 2) heterotrophs- gets food by eating other organism or byproducts 3) parasite- an organism that its off another species (the host) 4) host- another organism from which the parasite takes food and shelter
What is original remains?
An original remain is an actual part of an organism that is preserved in one of these 3 ways:Ice: One of the best ways to preserve a specimen, ice will keep the body, organs, tissues, or even hair in tact for millions of years.Amber: If you have ever seen "Jurassic Park" you may know about this. Millions of years ago some unlucky bugs or mosquitoes were trapped in some tree sap. After millions of years the sap turns into a stone called amber, that preserves the insects.Tar: Tar is a thick, oily, liquid that is very sticky. Similar to amber, some unfortunate larger animals, such as saber-toothed tigers, got trapped in the tar and died. After a while the bones of the creature are preserved, but the flesh and tissue is not.What they all have in common is that they all have been preserved in some way. Making them the "original remain" of the creature that was preserved.
