In order to be fossilized, an organism must be suitable for the process. Bones and teeth are perfect for fossilization and the organism must be buried quickly to be preserved. The soil must be low in acidity and have high concentrations of minerals.
A fossil is any trace of an organism preserved in a rock.
fossils
It is a fossil.
Any organism or parts of an organism counts as a fossil when preserved within amber, so fossils can be stored in amber.
Original Preservation is the process of fossilization, where the actual organism is preserved in whole or in part.

There are many different ways that an organism can be preserved. A few ways are mumification, buried in segments, taxidermy, freezing, fossilization, along with many others.
Fossilization
yes,because as long as the organism is buried,it can become fossilization
Rapid burial and the possession of hard parts are the two conditions that improve an organism's chances of being preserved as a fossil. Rapid burial is when an organism parts are quickly eaten by scavengers and the remains are buried by sediment. When this occurs the remains are protected from the environment.

Animals are not preserved as fossils. Fossils are imprints of the organism where the body has been replaced by rock minerals. They are most usually found in sedimentary rocks, occasionally in metamorphic rock but never in igneous rock.
Most organisms we find in the fossil record depend on oxygen to survive, but it is not necessary in the actual process of fossilization. In fact, a lack of oxygen would actually improve an organism's chance of being preserved, as it would hold back decay.
Preserved remains of an organism are most commonly referred to as fossils. But preserved remains can also be in amber (sap like substance).
The fossil needs to be in good conditions and it has to be buried the time the organism dies.
Successful fossilization or preservation of an organism can occur in several ways: (1) preservation without change; (2) complete replacement by a mineral; (3) filling in of a hollow space by a mineral; (4) formation of a thin film of carbon; and (5) formation of an imprint or the filling in of an imprint.
