Why do scientists look to sedimentary rocks when studying the history of the Earth?
The vast majority of fossils are found in sedimentary rock.
Have there been any fossils found in Quebec near the St Laurence river?
I've found some before at Parc-du-Haut-Fond. You turn a rock over and chances are that it has a fossil on it! (65%-70%) It's better to look when the tide is low because they are found mostly in the parts that get covered by the water when it's high tide. I have at least 10 with REALLY NICE fossils on them. I even found a rock with gems in it, but I lost it... :( Anyway, I hope you can find some! Good luck! :)
Why is the seaside a good place to look for fossils?
The seaside is a good place to look for fossils because it often contains exposed layers of sedimentary rock that are rich in fossils. The constant erosion from the waves can also help to uncover new fossils that may have been buried. Additionally, marine environments are known to have a high abundance and diversity of fossilized marine organisms.
When did the first fossils of a marine reptile found and what is it?
The first fossils of a marine reptile, specifically an ichthyosaur, were found in 1811 in England by Mary Anning. Ichthyosaurs were large, dolphin-like creatures that lived during the Mesozoic Era, approximately 245 to 90 million years ago. These fossils provided important evidence for the existence of extinct reptiles in the oceans.
How would a geologist determine the age of rock layers and fossils if the geologist found a never before seen rock layer that contain fossils?
First step would be relative-dating: examining the new unit in the context of known rocks above and below it. Then look for correlative formations & fossils elsewhere.

Scientists have found a number of fossils of theropod dinosaurs with anatomy remarkably similar to that of birds. Many dinosaurs are now known to have had feathers.
What color was a dinosaur?
For the most part, we don't know as very few fossils are preserved well enough to deduce the color. With a few dinosaurs, chemical traces have been found of color. Most colors found on dinosaurs are the colors of their feathers. Sinosaurpoteryx had an orange-and-white striped tail. Anchiornis was mostly black with white bands and a red crest, making it look somewhat like a woodpecker. Confuciusornis is believed to have been gray, black, and brown.
