Which important fossil is most likely found in the Triassic age rocks in the Newark lowlands?
Coelophysis would mostly be found in the New York lowlands.
Where would you most likely find fossil bearing rocks?
The most likely place would be at a limestone or dolostone rock quarry. However, fossils can be found in an abundance of places. Fossils are common in landscaping gravels, or anywhere mixed rocks are found.
What type of rock is most likely not found in a fossil?
Igneous.
Fossils are most likely to be found in rocks that are?
SEDIMENTARY
What type of rock is most likely to hold a fossil?
A fossil will most likely be found in a sedimentary rock because sedimentary rocks are made out of organic fragments such as rocks, shells, leaves, fossils, pebbles, and so on. A metamorphic rock would not hold a fossil because a metamorphic rock forms under great heat and pressure, and fossils would be destroyed under such conditions. An igneous rock would not hold a fossil because they form through the hardening of molten rock and fossils would be burned up and cremated in lava. Thus, fossils will most likely be found in a sedimentary rock.
Are most fossils found in sedimentary rocks?

What is the liquid found in volcanic rocks?

Which rocks would most likely contain a fossil in rock and minrol?
Sedimentary rocks, such as shale, sandstone, and limestone, are most likely to contain fossils. These rocks form from the accumulation of sediment and often preserve the remains of plants and animals. Fossils are less commonly found in igneous and metamorphic rocks, as these rocks form from molten material and intense pressure and heat, which usually destroy any existing fossils.
A fossil of a whole prehistoric insect would most likely be found where?
encased in amber
