Is the outline of a fern found in a rock a fossil?
i bet ur doin that spring break science test right? well the answer is sedimentary. fossils of fern leaves would most likely be found in sedimentary rocks. your welcome
Where is carbon found in the biosphere?
In the atmosphere as Carbon Dioxide (Co2) Underground as fossil fuels and calcium carbonate rock In the oceans as dissolved Co2
Type of rock in which most fossils are found?
Sedimentary rock is where we look for fossils.
Fossils are found only in .?
Sedimentary rocks
The kind of rock that you are most likely to find in fossils?
Fossils are most likely to be found in sedimentary rock.
What are the remains of once-living orgainismsfound in sedimentary rocks?
All fossils are found in sedimentary rocks. Some sedimentary rocks are made of nothing but fossils such as chalk. A creature ( microscopic or larger) skeleton is deposited after death usually on the ocean floor. Sediments cover it, and over time turns into a fossil.
What are the remains of once living organisims found in sedimentary rocks?
fossils
What are remains of once living organism found in sedimentary rocks?
Fossils.
Which word means the remains or imprints of once-living organisms found in layers of rock?
Fossil.
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.
Why don't we find fossils in igneous and metamorphic rocks?
Fossils are remains or impressions of living organisms and they are found in the sediments in or near where they lived. Living organisms cannot live in a molten magma which cools to become an igneous rock. Metamorphic rocks used to be sedimentary and igneous rocks but they were buried very deep under mountains and any traces of fossils in the sedimentary layers have been removed by the heat and pressure which altered the rock.
Fossils are most commonly found in which type of rock?
Fossils are most commonly found in sedimentary rocks. These rocks form from the accumulation and cementation of sediment, which helps preserve the remains of organisms over time. Sedimentary rocks often provide the ideal conditions for the formation and preservation of fossils.
If you were looking for fossils in what types of rocks would you expect to find them?
Fossils are typically found in sedimentary rocks, which are formed from the accumulation of sediments over time. This is because sedimentary rocks have layers that can preserve the remains of organisms. Igneous and metamorphic rocks are less likely to contain fossils because they are formed from molten magma and high-pressure processes that destroy organisms' remains.
A mountain in the desert is found to be made from the remains of ancient ocean organisms Which type of rock makes up the mountain?
The mountain is likely made of sedimentary rock, such as limestone or sandstone, that formed from the accumulation and compaction of the remains of ancient ocean organisms over millions of years.
What is a rock formed from the remains of living things called?
A rock formed from the remains of living things is called a sedimentary rock. This type of rock is formed through a process known as lithification, where sediments such as dead plants or animals accumulate and become compacted over time. Examples include limestone, coal, and chalk.
What are the remains of past life found in sedimentary rock?
sometimes fossils
Which word means the historyof life in the geologic past as indicated by the imprints or remains of living things?
The word is "paleontology." It is the study of the history of life based on the imprints or remains of living organisms found in rocks and fossils.
