What is a significant benefit of studying fossils?
1.)They provide an ancestral linkage to modern species. For example, the chordates (which includes we humans) can be traced back to our common ancestry to sea squirts! The fossils record is database for evolution. 2.)They sometimes can explain the ecological roles and modes of life of past organisms, which can be correlated to modern species. 3.)hey can tell us what types of sediment deposits were present, by determining what fossils are found. i.e. marine fossils present indicates it would be a marine sediment and not a land sediment. p.s. i see u right now
Why are wind hydroelectric and geothermal energy not suitable for providing energy worldwide?
Because they are not universally present in all areas, and are not present at all times.
Which statement best explains how fern fossils could be found in present-day Arctic regions?
The one having to do with continental drift.
What does a paleocologist do?
Paleontology is the study of prehistoric life based on fossil evidence. It deals with organisms that lived before the start of the present (Holocene) era. The science overlaps with biology and geology.
What determines the strength of a magnetic field?
factors on which magnetic field a bar magnet depends :- 1. pole strength of the magnet 2. medium in which the bar magnet is present(since the permittivity changes) factors on which external magnetic field(B) of a current carrying coil depends:- 1. the amount of current flowing through the conductor 2. the perpendicular distance of the point from the conductor. 3. medium in which the conductor is present(since the permittivity changes)
How do you suppose geologists in the field find clues about the distribution of rock types?
Discontinuity surfaces (bedding planes and various types of unconformities), significant changes in mineralogy or grain size or changes in the types of fossils present in the rock may all help identify differing rock layers.
What evidence do fossils provide of the environments past and present?
changes in the environment e.g. the place, temperature, climate.
How much money did Clear and Present Danger gross worldwide?
Clear and Present Danger grossed $207,500,000 worldwide.
Fossils formed when an organism dissolves and leaves an empty space in a rock are called?
Voids left behind by once present fossils are called 'trace fossils'.

What are fossils and early plants similar to?
Lets say if you take any plant of your choice and subject it to extreme conditions of pressure temperature etc., and also aging process then you get some what similar to a Fossil.that is the fossil (considering plant fossils) and other early plants are all "similar" to present day plants (or present day living things) (barring evolutionary changes).Hope this Helps
When were fossils made?
Fossils stated being made as soon as life appeared on Earth (about 3600 million years ago) and they continue to be made at present.
