we need to study rocks because it gives us important information about the origin of the earth by the use of fosills
Geology is the branch of science that includes the study of rocks, while paleontology is the branch that focuses on the study of fossils.
people who specialize in rock fossils are called paleontologists
To know all about rocks and fossils and their rock cycle.
Strictly speaking these are two differing types of scientists. Petrologists study rocks and paleontologists study fossils. However both these disciplines are covered in the broader training of a geologist.
The study of strata is called stratigraphy. Stratigraphy can be used to determine an approximate age of fossils in rocks.

A person who studies rocks and fossils is called an archeologist. No, the study of fossils is called paleontology and the study of rocks is called geology, so a person studies fossils is called a paleontologist. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archeology http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleontology
I need the answer
Most fossils are preserved in sedimentary rocks such as mud-stones and shales. Fossils can also be found in metamorphic rocks and in some cases igneous rocks like tuffs can preserve organisms (like Pompeii).
A scientist who digs for fossils is called a paleontologist. They study ancient life forms and the history of life on Earth by examining fossils found in rocks.
because they are rocks and fossils dont belong in rocks and fossils can be made things an rocks cant :(...
