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.
What are plants and animals that turned into stone called?
Plants and animals that have turned into stone through the process of fossilization are referred to as "fossils." This process typically involves the replacement of organic materials with minerals over millions of years, preserving their shape and structure. Fossils provide valuable insights into the history of life on Earth and are essential for understanding evolutionary processes. The most common types of fossils include petrified wood, bone, and shells.
What happened to some animals and plants of long ago after they died?
After animals and plants died long ago, their bodies were buried by sediments and over time, pressure and heat turned them into fossils. Fossils are the preserved remains or traces of ancient organisms that give us clues about prehistoric life and environments.
The remains of a once living thing?
Fossils are the remains of plants and animals that have been turned to stone.
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 is dead plants or animals that have turned into rock?
Fossils are the preserved remains or traces of plants and animals that lived in the past. Through a process called petrification, minerals replace the organic material in the remains, turning them into rock-like structures over time.
What are plants or animals turned to stone called?
Petrification =D
What are plant and animal remains that have turned to stone called?
Ah, those are called fossils, my friend! Fossils are like little time capsules that give us a peek into the past, showing us what plants and animals looked like long ago. It's amazing how nature preserves these treasures for us to discover and learn from.
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.
How are depositions form?
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.
