What is the difference between rocks and fossils?
A rock is combinations of minerals and either has to be an igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary rock. A mineral is a solid that was formed in nature, has a definite chemical makeup, and has a crystal structure.
Is coal cheap or expensive?
none , coal is made out of fossils of animals that have been stored in nature for more than thousands of years . the pressure or the forces of erosion makes the coal.
Are animals nature?
It means the remains of dead animals. Similarly, plant matter is the remains of dead plants.
Is sand being wash out is a chemical or physical change?
It is a physical change, as the nature of the sand remains the same, only its position is changed by wave action.
What do fossils tell you?
Fossils provide a window in Earth's history by showing us how life existed in the past. They can be dated through several ways and can show us how animals and plants have evolved over millions of years. Also, fossils can help us better understand ancient disasters by the inclusion of elements (such as volcanic ash or dust from major space object impacts) and how they affected the life on earth. <3
Who invented the fossils?
Nature.
Who created mammoth cave?

What are organic remains?
Organic Remains are remains from a living thing such as dead leaves or a dead tree. The Organic Remains are no longer in use but they have to be from something in nature.
What were mammoths good for?
Wooly mammoths were roughly the same sizes as modern elephants, males averaging 9 to 11 feet tall, and females reaching up to 8 or 9ft. The mammoth were monstrous at birth, weighing in at 200lb, and growing up to be a massive 6-7 ton creature. The physical structures and adaptations of the woolly mammoth was it's greatest asset in the cold environment during the ice age. Covered in longer hairs on the outer layer, and short guard hairs closer to the body, heat loss wasn't a problem, it also had shorter ears than the modern African element that it resembles, in order to prevent frostbite. Lastly, the mammoth had large tusks, which were replaced six times throughout their lifetime, and used these tusks for working with objects, fighting prey and other mammoths, and foraging. The wooly mammoth could be said to be the cause of most of the problems in modern society, and my everyday life, as the mammoths thrived mainly in Eurasia, henceforth, the mammoths were hunted in by Euro-Asian communities. These communities thrived due to the mammoth, and continued to due so, these communities thrived for generations, and these generations gave birth to some of the most treacherous men in world history (e.g Hitler), men who caused wars my relatives fought in, or faced the repercussions from. Because my family basically fought against the mammoths that caused the downfall of modern society, i am where i stand today. I am free because the woolly mammoths are extinct $1.25 Thursday, March 6th, 2014 Vol XCIII, No. 311 Habitat and Niche Mammuthus Primigenius SEAHORSES The primary habitat in which the Woolly Mammoth resided in was the Arctic Tundra, across the northern parts of Eurasia and Northern America During the winter it is very cold and dark, with the average temperature around −28 °C (−18 °F), sometimes dipping as low as −50 °C (−58 °F). Generally daytime temperatures during the summer rise to about 12 °C (54 °F) but can often drop to 3 °C (37 °F) or even below freezing. The specific niche of the mammoth was very similar to that of a modern elephant.....just colder.....hence the wool......it ate the sparse vegetation found throughout the tundra, grass and sedge. As a herbivore, it's role in nature was a primary producer, a large source of meat for predators. WOOLLY MAMMOTHS:EXTINCT Jalen Faulkner's joke The woolly mammoth started to die out late in Pleistocene epoch. At first, it was said the cause of death is either the vast climate change, humans, or a mix of both. The idea that climate lead to their death has been ruled however due to the fact that the species was alive around 1700 B.C, at that the point had already changed climate significantly since the last ice age, therefore scientist believe that mammoths were either overhunted or died by disease They were over-hunted due to the fact that they were such a large supply of meat and their fur was extremely useful. Supposedly, the woolly mammoth still rooms the sparse and rarely inhabited taigas of Alaska and Russia. In the 19th century, Russian tribesmen reported seeing, "large furry creatures, the size of elephants." much wooly very mammoth such tusks wow
What conditions were needed to turn the plants and animals into fossils?
near immediate plastering by mud and afterwards a period of drought and even then, many fossils are destroyed by nature and are generally very fragile
