One kind of fossil forms from the body parts of organisms. What is another kind of fossil?
Another kind of fossil is a mold or cast fossil, which forms when an organism's remains decay and leave an impression in the surrounding sediment that is later filled with minerals. Another type is a trace fossil, which is evidence of an organism's activity, like footprints or burrows, preserved in rock.
