What is a facies fossil?

Is fossil which is present in more than one facies or environment. Body of rock with features that distinguish it from other bodies of rock


What type of fossil forms when pore spaces of the original hard parts of an animal are filled in by minerals?

A cast fossil is formed when minerals fill in an impression left by an organism.


What are cast fossils?

One form of fossil forms when an organism dies and its body is covered by layers of sediment. As time passes, the organism itself, particularly when composed primarily of softer materials, is eroded and carried away, leaving a negative imprint of its body. This type of fossil is called a mold. A cast fossil forms when a mold fossil is filled with some form of mineral, usually through the seepage of water depositing the minerals within the mold. In time, the mold is filled and the materials deposited harden, creating a replica of the original fossil. This is called a cast fossil.


Which type fossil is formed when an organism gets trapped in a developing rock layer and then decays away leaving an imprint of what the organism looked like?

A mold is a fossil created by the encasement of an organism in rock, where the organism decays away after solidification of the encasing structure, leaving behind an impression of the original organism. An additional stage is a cast, where the mold is back filled by sedements to create a solid model of the original organism.


What is a true fossil?

A True form fossil is a fossil of the whole/entire body of the organism.

What half-life of C14 is 5730 years. What fraction of the original C14 would you expect to be present in a fossil that is 28650 years old?

1/32 of the original amount.


The half-life of C14 is 5730 years. What fraction of the original C14 would you expect to be present in a fossil that is 28650 years old?

There would be 1/32 left.


What fraction of the original c14 would you expect to be present in a fossil that is twenty eight thousand six hundred and fifty years old?

The half-life of C14 is 5730 years so the given period is 5 half-lives. You should, therefore, expect approx 2-5 = 0.03125 of the original C14 to remain.


What fraction of the original C14 would you expect to present in a fossil that is 28650 years old?

Lets see: 28,650 - 5700 = 22,950; 1/2 22,950 - 5700 = 17,250; 1/4 17,250 - 5700 = 11,550; 1/8 11,550 - 5700 = 5,850; 1/16 5,850 - 5700 = 150; 1/32 (That is so close it is the answer.)
