Is the total number of fossils found during July and august proportional to the numbernof days the paleontologist spent looking for fossils in august?
No because it says she found 14 fossils per day not she found 14 fossils one for each day
What else can I help you with?
How are fossils used in determining the age of the Earth?

Is it hard to find fossils?
It can be very hard to find fossils if you are looking in the wrong place. However it can be almost impossible to NOT find fossils if you are looking in the right place (there are places where fossils are covering the ground and falling out of eroding rock outcrops, so that everywhere you walk you cannot avoid stepping on them).
How do fossils give evidence of biological evolution?
By looking at the fossils and seeing how they change over time.
Fossils are the remains of plants and animals that lived long ago?
I think your looking for Fossils, They contain imprints of Plant and Animal material up to millions of years old. If you want a specific rock that contains Preserved animal or plant remains, try Amber, its Tree sap that has solidified into rock over time and often the insects or plants are perfectly preserved inside. I hope this was helpfull!
Why are fossils so important?
Fossils are important to the humans because they help us learn about animals that are extinct (like dinosours). They can also help us with many clues as to how dinosours became extinct, and what they looked like.
What type of scientist studies plant fossils?
A paleontologist studies the history of plants and animals.
How the law of superposition helps paleontologist?
Superposition is the methodology of younger sediments being deposited over older rocks. Paleontologists can determine the evolution or extinction of a species by looking at what fossils are either present or absent in a particular sedimentary layer.
What is an antonym for proportional?
Disproportional.If instead you're looking for the antonym of directly proportional, that would be inversely proportional.
If you were a paleontologist who studies fossils of very ancient life forms where would be the best place to look for very old fossils on land or in the oceans?
As a paleontologist studying very ancient life forms, some of the best places to look for fossils would be in sedimentary rock formations that date back to the Precambrian era, such as the Canadian Shield or the rocks of South Africa. In oceans, areas like the ancient seabeds of the Burgess Shale in Canada or the formations in the Appalachian Mountains can provide rich fossil deposits. Additionally, looking in regions with uplifted ancient marine environments can yield significant discoveries. Overall, both land and ocean sites with well-preserved sedimentary layers are prime locations for very old fossils.
Which cycles can be studied by looking at fossils?
erosion
What was the preserved remains of ancient organisms called?
The preserved remains of animals of evidence of their existence are Fossils Fosssils that provide evidence about the past are called trace fossils.
Is 7 and 9 proportional?
You CAN'T determine whether two numbers are proportional, just by looking at one number from each set.
Why arent there any more fossils?
There are fossils left, ones are constantly forming. Perhaps you aren't looking in the right places
What sedimentary rock often has fossils?
Paleontologists are looking for fossils in sedimentary rock.
What can a scientist infer by looking at fossils footprints?
what type of dinosaur it is and its weight
In addition to fossils how can scientists learn about an organisms ancestor?
Aside from fossils we can learn about organisms and how they have changed over the years by looking at the plants and animals we have today.
Which word means the remains or imprints of once-living organisms found in layers or rock?
The word you are looking for is "fossil." Fossils are the preserved remains or traces of organisms that lived in the past, typically found in sedimentary rock layers. These remains provide valuable information about the history of life on Earth and can help scientists understand evolutionary processes.
