What is fossilized dung?

How do parts of living things become fossilized?
When an organism dies, it can become buried in sediment which helps protect it from decay. Over time, minerals from the surrounding environment can seep into the organism's tissues, gradually replacing them and forming a fossil. The process of fossilization can take millions of years.

Are fossilized plants an example of artifacts?

What can you infer about fossil fuels from their name?

What can organism is most likely to become fossilized?

How do soft animal parts become fossilized?
Soft animal parts can become fossilized through a process called carbonization, where organic material is compressed and heated under sediment, leaving a carbon residue. This can preserve delicate structures like feathers or skin. Another way is through replacement, where minerals gradually replace the organic material, preserving the shape and detail of the soft tissue.
Can a snail become a fossil?
Yes, snails can become fossils. When a snail dies, its shell may become buried in sediment and over time, minerals in the sediment can replace the original material of the shell, preserving it as a fossil. Fossilized snail shells can be found in many different types of rock formations.
