Are fossils made from rocks?
Fossils are made of rock yes. Most commonly this happens when a living organism (plant or animal) dies and its body is buried in mud before it has a chance to decay. The mud hardens into rock quickly, while the dead body slowly breaks down and leaves behind a hollow impression in the now solid rock around it. This kind of fossil is called a mold fossil, as the hollow remains empty like a jello mold. A cast fossil is when later other mineral rich water fills up the mold eventually turning the hollow into a solid rock of a different kind than the rock around it. Trace fossils are made in the same way but come from things made by a living organism such as footprints or tracks, burrows or nests, eggshells and droppings. These fossils are not of the animal itself but preserve evidence of the animal behavior.

A kind of fossil were an animal or plant leaves only its body impression in the mud?
A fossil of this type is called an impression fossil. It forms when an organism's body creates an imprint in soft mud or sediment, which then hardens into rock and preserves the shape of the organism but not its actual remains. These fossils provide important information about ancient organisms and their environments.
