When sedimentary rocks grow more layers small fossilised animals get caught between the layers. Ther fore when people chip away at the rock or erosion happens the fossilisd animals have been turned into fossils and fall out.
Why are fossils important to our understanding of geologic time?
Fossils, defined as the physical remains of past life, provide invaluable information to scientists. They not only provide a picture of a long-distant past, but also information that can be used to understand the evolution of today's plants and animals and clues for the future of our planet.
Who invented fossils?
No one invented fossils. That would be like asking who invented water. Fossils are a natural occurrence that happens over a long time. Aristotle had questions as early as 4 BC of why seashells were found on mountaintops. See the related link for more information.

How do they test things on animals?
It depends on what they're testing. For drug trials, they dose the animals with the drugs and see what happens to them. For cosmetics, generally they're checking to see if it causes skin or eye irritation, so they rub them on the animal's skin or squirt it in their eyes.

What is meant by the study of fossils?
When living things die, sometimes they can get buried in mud or sand before they rot away. If this happens, over time the mud or sand can be turned into rock and the hard parts of the living things are also mineralized (turned into rock) but in a way that preserves the structure of the original living thing. An impression of a living thing preserved in this way is called a fossil and by studying the fossils that are to be found in rocks it is possible to see and understand creatures that lived on earth a very long time ago.
