What types of fossils does not form in sediments?
Well there are 3 types of fossils: Petrified Fossils, Molds and Cast, and Preserved Remains. Petrified Fossils are the organisms buried in the layers of sediment. Molds and Casts are the organisms, like shells, buried by sediments, in which they gradually dissolve. Preserved Remains are the organisms preserved in other substances. For example, entire organisms, such as huge elephant-like mammoths that lived thousands of years ago, have been preserved in ice. Therefore, Preserved Remains is a major type of fossil that does not form in sediments. This can be formed by decades of being stuck in the ice age and eventually falling through the ice and never getting out. Since you cant get out you get frozen! Being frozen and preserved in another type of substance in called... Preserved Remains! --Hope this could help. Thanks for reading.:)
When an organism dies the substances in its body are what by other organisms?
Recycled or Replaced.
Fungi that break down complex organic substances into raw material that other organisms can use are?
Decomposers
Ripple marks in rocks are formed by?
They initially are formed by moving water which arranges sediment in patterned formations. If the ripples in the sediment are covered with other sediments before being obliterated, or if the ripple marks dry, and are then covered with subsequent sediments, they may eventually be preserved in the rock strata.
What organism that produces its own nutrients from inorganic substances or from the environment instead of consuming other organisms?
Patrick ferrenbergs flanel
Which of the major types of fossil does not form in sediments?
Petrified fossils are organisms preserved I'm other substances such as amber, tar, ice, or other substances

How do you preserved aromatic waters?
because it has oxygen and reused by other aquatic organisms
What is soil bioturbation?
Bioturbation refers to the reworking and mixing of sediments due to biologic activity. Worms and other burrowing organisms are common producers of bioturbated sediments.
What causes some parts of the ocean to be saltier than other parts?
River sediments
What is a science paper funnel used for?
A science paper funnel is for filtering fine particles, called sediments, from suspensions, which are substances with these sediments in them. Sediments could include sand in water, or even dust in air, and other small particles.
When an organism dies the substances in its body are what by other organisms?
Recycled or Replaced.
Decirbe how substances that make up living things are recycled?
When organisms die, substances in their bodies are broken down and released into the environment. The substances can then be used again by other living organisms. This information was retrieved from the New York science grade 6 textbook from Glencoe science.
Why is there a gap of time between the evolution of algae and trilobites?
There isn't, of course, a gap in time. There are, however, very few fossils intermediate between simple stromatolites (the first more or less multicellular organisms) and the first complex organisms found just before the Cambrian Explosion. This gap most likely exists because while predation already existed (organisms consuming other organisms), no organisms had yet developed an internal or external skeleton that could have been preserved at death. The very few organisms from that era that were preserved despite of this, were preserved in the form of molds and casts.
What kind of fungi transform complex organic substances into raw materials that other organisms can use?
Decomposers.
