Cavity in rock made when an organism decayed?
A cavity in the ground where organisms can be buried is called a hole. If sediment fills this hole the organism may become fossilized.
Can mineral fossilization occur without the presence of water?
yes,because as long as the organism is buried,it can become fossilization
How does a igneous rock become a sedimentary rock?
