What are the five types of fossils that can be found in rock?
Five types of fossils found in rocks are petrified fossils (minerals replace organic matter), mold fossils (imprint of an organism), cast fossils (mold filled with minerals), carbon films (thin layer of carbon residue), and trace fossils (evidence of organism's activity).
What are five different type of fossils?
Imprint fossils, Mineralized fossils, frozen fossils, fossils in amber, and cast fossils.
What are the types of fossils?
molds and casts, trace fossils, petrified wood, and carbon filmThe four types of fossils are mold fossils, cast fossils, true-form fossils, and trace fossils. Mold fossils are impressions from when the plant or animal first decomposed. Cast fossils are plant or animal remains. True-form fossils are remaining body parts from an animal. Trace fossils are marks that have been left by animal, such as footprints.
What are 4 materials that fossils can be found in?
amber, petrified fossils, trace fossils, carbon films, molds, and cast.
How do you know what dinosaurs look like?
Dinosaurs are reconstructed from fossils, petrified remains, trace fossils, and comparisons with existing animals.
What fossils offer information on the activity and physiology of the creature that made them?
Probably a trace fossil; evidences of an organisms existence, without the body. Trace fossils include footprints, feces, burrow marks, and chemical signatures.
What are Cast fossils mold fossils petrified fossils trace fossils carbon fossils and preserved fossils?
Cast fossils: Formed when minerals fill a mold left by a decayed organism. Mold fossils: Created when an organism's remains leave an impression in sediment that hardens into rock. Petrified fossils: Organic material replaced by minerals over time, forming a rock-like replica. Trace fossils: Evidence of an organism's activity (e.g., footprints or burrows) preserved in sedimentary rock. Carbon fossils: Organisms preserved in carbon-rich environments, like coal or oil deposits. Preserved fossils: Organisms remain intact or partially intact due to exceptional preservation conditions.
What are some petrified fossils?

What are the names of the five types of fossils?
The 5 types of fossils are ...Imprint Fossils- an organism leaving an imprint on sediment that later hardens into rock.Mineralization Fossils- when minerals replace wood or bone to create a piece of petrified wood or a mineralization bone fossilsFrozen Fossils- when something like an animal gets taped in ice and remains their frozenCast Fossils- when it fills up a hollow moldfossils in amber- when an insect gets stuck in amber
Define fossils and explain how fossil are made?
Fossils are depositions of dead animal imprints and/or bones. When an animal or plant dies, its skin rots away, leaving behind the bone or imprint.
What are remaiins or traces of organisms preserved in rock called?
fossils
