The remains of a once living thing?
Fossils are the remains of plants and animals that have been turned to stone.
How do fossils turn into oil?
fossil fuels r like decayed plants and animals (so FOSSILS) from 100 million years ago. they get turned into coal and oil and then drilled out.
Why do we find fossils in sedimentary rock?
When ancient animals and plants died, their bodies might be covered in silt, mud, sand, etc. Over an extremely long time, the sediment may be turned into sedimentary rock. The preserved remains are what we know as fossils.
What are plants or animals turned to stone called?
Petrification =D
How do plants get nitrogen compared to how animals get nitrogen?
Most plants get nitrogen from fertilizers. Some plants can have a process called nitrogen fixing in which nitrogen from the is turned into ammonium compounds. Animals get their nitrogen from food, by eating plants and other animals.
How is the energy of the sun transferred to animals and man?
By consuming plants that have used the sun's energy and turned it into food or by consuming animals that have consumed plants...or by consuming animals that have consumed animals that have eaten plante etc.
Why are fossil fuels considered a no renewable resources?
Fossil fuel is made from fossils that was under pressure for millions of years and turned into oil or coal. This can not be reproduced since there are no more fossils made from long extinct animals.
How are depositions form?
Millions of years of pressure and heat turned decaying animals and plants into coal.
What is dead plants or animals that have turned into rock?
The rock that forms is called a fossil.
How are coal deposits formed?
Millions of years of pressure and heat turned decaying animals and plants into coal.
How did plants and animals that make up fossil fuels get their energy?
Most animals that became fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) were tiny plankton in the oceans. Coal was made from larger vegetation and possibly animals like archosaurs, the reptile ancestors of the dinosaurs.
Why don't most plants and animals that die in the forest eventually become covered with layers of rock and turned into fossils?
Their remains are subject to predation and decomposition before they have a chance to be covered in a layer of protective sediment that is normally associated with water erosion and deposition. The forest is not conducive to windblown or water carried sedimentation.
