Does fossilization need oxygen to occur?
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.
Which maintains the immediate conditions necessary for life?
Homeostasis
What conditions made it possible for a petrified fossil to be fossilized?
covered up quickly, also important depending on the type of fossilization, water running through the area. Key would be the mineral replacement offered to the fossil.
What fossilization process involves the transformation of organic material into a thin film of water?
Carbonization
Why it is necessary to critique a scientific argument before it is accepted.?
The purpose of the critique is to insure that the scientific argument has been properly researched and investigated and no possible alternate arguments have been ignored.
What are the conditions for fossilization?
Probably anaerobic conditions.
What are conditions needed for fossilization?
The fossil needs to be in good conditions and it has to be buried the time the organism dies.
What conditions are necessary for fossilization?
the answer to this question is. Tom Holtz referred the person who asked about fossilization processes to any elementary textbook on geology or paleontology to answer this question.My research has shown that secondary mineralization, remineralization, leaching of bone mineral, and biologically-induced mineralization begin very rapidly after the bone is exposed to the environment.
What is the nonrenewable energy resource that is found in the rocks on Earth's surface?
It is the coal. Coal was formed by the process of fossilization, millions of years ago. Since fossilization happen in special conditions hence its product is nonrenewable.
What is the two conditions that help the process of 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.

Is Miranda no longer necessary to insure a suspects rights under the fifth amendment?
No, it is still necessary to protect the rights of the accused.
Why is commercial vehicle insurance necessary?
A commercial vehicle insurance is necessary to insure the parties involve in any auto accidents
The process of changing the hard parts of the remains of an animal or plant with minerals is called?
Fossilization
What type of conditions must be present for mineral fossilization to occur?
An important factor to make fossil formation more likely is rapid burial or coverage of the object so it isn't exposed to much air. There also needs to be an absence of decomposers.
Can mineral fossilization occur without the presence of water?
yes,because as long as the organism is buried,it can become fossilization
