In geology, petrification or petrification is the process by which organic material becomes a fossil through the replacement of the original material and the filling of the original pore spaces with minerals. So yeah the answer is petrification

When minerals replace bone a what fossil forms?

When minerals replace bone (organic matter), the type of fossil form is Petrification. Petrification types of fossils are abundantly found in Gondwanaland. Both plants and animals are subjected to this process, particularly those having hard tissues like bones and vasculature.

What happens to wood after minerals replace the wood fibers?

After minerals replace wood fibers, the wood undergoes a process called permineralization. This process fills in the spaces within the wood structure with minerals such as silica or calcite, thus preserving the wood structure but turning it into a fossil. Over time, the original organic material of the wood is completely replaced by minerals, resulting in a rock-like structure.


A dinosaur tooth can be fossilized when the minerals that make up rock replace the minerals that is made up the bones what is this process called?

This process is called fossilization. Minerals from the surrounding rock infiltrate the bone structure, gradually replacing the organic material with minerals such as silica or calcite, turning it into a fossil.


Why are vascular tissues called conducting tissues?

Because water, minerals and prepared food materials are conducted (transported) through these tissues.


A fossil formed when minerals replace all or part of an organism?

A fossil formed through the process of permineralization, where minerals gradually replace the organic materials in the organism's remains, creating a rock-like replica of the original organism. This process preserves the structure and sometimes even the cellular details of the organism.
