Trace Fossil
Any evidence of ancient life is called a fossil.
The area of Earth science that examines physical and biological changes that have occurred in Earth's past is called paleontology. Paleontologists study fossils and other evidence to understand the history of life on Earth and how organisms have evolved over time.
Fossils. Fossils are the preserved remains or traces of organisms found in rocks or other geological formations. They provide valuable information about past life forms and environments.
Geologists would most likely find evidence of past life forms in sedimentary rocks. These rocks are formed from the accumulation and compaction of sediments, which can preserve fossils of organic materials like plants and animals. Sedimentary rocks are often rich in fossils and provide valuable information about past life on Earth.
Paleontologists study fossils to understand the history of life on Earth, including evolution, ancient environments, and extinct species. They analyze fossil evidence to reconstruct the past, identify new species, and infer relationships between different organisms.
Mars
Scientists can see th fossils and the living organisms.
The preserved remains of animals of evidence of their existence are Fossils Fosssils that provide evidence about the past are called trace fossils.
The information that paleontologists gather is called fossil data. This includes evidence such as fossils, tracks, and traces left by organisms that lived in the past. This data helps researchers to understand the history of life on Earth and how organisms have evolved over time.
We don't know that they do. Evidence of running water some time in the past has been found on the surface of Mars, but as yet no direct evidence of the past or present existence of micro-organisms.

Fossils are proof of organisms that lived long ago

Volcanic activity is known to occur on Earth, Mars, Venus, and Io, a moon of Jupiter. These locations have evidence of active volcanoes or past volcanic activity.
