How do fossils provide evidence of how enviromental conditions and life have changed?

Answer 1

Based upon the soil/rock surrounding the fossil, the Earth's climate and surface may have changed since the components in the fossil were perhaps relatively different from the present.

Answer 2

Because the change of the atmosphere all animals got excited after the flood and bearore God the savior and the only one who created this world and made you and me let the flood be. THAT'S WHY HE TOLD MOSES to put every animal in the ark that he took 100 years doing with his family. G od decided after that the atmosphere change so the dionesouras werent used to the climet and the plants changed

Answer 3

We find fossils of arboreal (forest) creatures in the deserts of Eastern Oregon. This indicates the climate was significantly different in those places at the time the bodies of those organisms were preserved.

The deeper we dig into Eastern Oregon's geologic strata, the wetter we find the climate to have been, such that in the early Cenozoic that area was predominantly rainforest.

Answer 4

The climate (physical effects of the sun and atmosphere on the environment) can be determined by taking core samples of the ice at our planet's poles and at other locations where the earth has preserved samples of representative atmospheric gases. As the ice is melted in a vacuum it is trapped and analysed for greenhouse gases (CO2 primarily) and proportions of atmospheric gas components (Nitrogen, Oxygen, etc..). By matching these sets of gas measurements with our current gas measurements we are able to make some general comparisons of climate condition in the distant pass.

Answer 6

Because the fossils are no longer alive! but they must want to still be alive! lol
