If a piece of the tree does not rot (decompose) when it dies,
and it rests (initially) in a very wet environment,
then, over a long period of time, organic atoms (compounds) will be replaced by inorganic atoms (compounds).
Thus a fossil.
The innermost part of a tree trunk, known as the heartwood, is typically the oldest part of the tree. It is formed from older layers of sapwood that have become inactive.
Hardened tree sap is also known as resin or amber. It is created when the sap from a tree solidifies and hardens over time. This material has been used for various purposes, including making jewelry, ornaments, and even in the preservation of fossils.
Pine trees are not typically found in rainforests as they require colder temperatures and well-drained soil, unlike the moist and warm conditions of rainforests.
Any organic material can potentially be fossilized, including bones, teeth, shells, wood, plants, and feathers. Soft tissues can also be fossilized under exceptional conditions, such as in amber or in ice.
Twig.
Yes it is a fossilized plant, usually a tree part.
It is dung that has become fossilized.
Fossilized tree sap is called amber.-Leah Ward
Yes
Yes, amber is a natural stone. It is fossilized tree resin that has hardened over millions of years.
Amber is fossilized tree resin. It came from coniferous trees that are now extinct. Amber is typically a deep yellow color.
A tree fossilized by petrification process becomes a stone fossil
Amber is not a mineral, hence it cannot be a silicate. Amber is fossilized tree resin.
Because amber is fossilized tree resin, it would be highly unlikely that it would be found on a live tree.

Hard parts such as bones, teeth, and shells are most likely to become fossilized as they have a higher chance of being preserved over time. Soft tissues like muscles and organs usually decay before fossilization can occur.
Fossilized tree sap is called amber. It is formed when tree resin hardens and becomes buried in the ground, where it can undergo a process of polymerization over millions of years. Amber often contains prehistoric insects or other small organisms preserved within it.
