1. An ancient animal dies and sinks to the bottom of a river
2. Layers of sediments cover the animal's body
3.Over millions of years, the sediment harden to become rock. The animal is preserved as a fossil.
4. The rock erodes. The fossil is exposed on the surface of a rock.
You have to have the dead remains buried quickly and then never distroyed
The most common four types of fossils are:mold fossils(a fossilized impression made in the substrate - a negative image of the organism)cast fossils(formed when a mold is filled in)trace fossils = ichnofossils(fossilized nests, gastroliths, burrows, footprints, etc.)true form fossils(fossils of the actual animal or animal part).
The best place to find dinosaur fossils in the world is in the United States. Another place to find dinosaur fossils is in Alberta, Canada. The best place to look for fossils is somewhere where there aren't many plants/trees, like a desert.
Sedimentary rock is where we look for fossils.
Fossils are most likely to be found in sedimentary rock.
Most fossils form in sedimentary rock, which is formed from layers of sediment that build up over time. This process preserves the remains of plants and animals, creating fossils.
Flowers Fossils come out of sedimentary rock. == ==
It is most commonly refered to as "Work"
Fossils form when something dies and it decays over theyears. Thenall you see are the bones. Like dinosaurs bones!
Most fossils form in sedimentary rock, which is created by the deposition and accumulation of sediments over time. The most common types of sedimentary rock that preserve fossils are shale, sandstone, and limestone.
Sediments. Sedimentary materials.
Fossils can form from pretty much anything. They normally form from animals fish and objects such as jewelry. Fossils are very unique things and show us what happened in history :) booooooooooggggggggggggiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeee mmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnn is a fossil as well ;)
because fossils are rare to find and in complete form even more rare only 10% or less out of 100% fossils have been found on earth
A fossil will most likely be found in a sedimentary rock because sedimentary rocks are made out of organic fragments such as rocks, shells, leaves, fossils, pebbles, and so on. A metamorphic rock would not hold a fossil because a metamorphic rock forms under great heat and pressure, and fossils would be destroyed under such conditions. An igneous rock would not hold a fossil because they form through the hardening of molten rock and fossils would be burned up and cremated in lava. Thus, fossils will most likely be found in a sedimentary rock.

Sedimentary rocks are most commonly known to hold fossils, particularly rocks like limestone, sandstone, and shale. These rocks form from the accumulation of sediment over time, which can help preserve the remains of plants and animals as fossils.
Sedimentary rocks, such as shale, sandstone, and limestone, are most likely to contain fossils. These rocks form from the accumulation of sediment and often preserve the remains of plants and animals. Fossils are less commonly found in igneous and metamorphic rocks, as these rocks form from molten material and intense pressure and heat, which usually destroy any existing fossils.
