Why is a clam more likely to fossilize more than a jellyfishanswers.com?
Because it is more resistant to biological and environmental destruction.
Which is the most likely to fossilize a clam or jellyfish?
A clam is more likely. Jellies have no bones.
Can a cobra kill a woolly mammoth?
Yes, but it is more likely that the cobra's poison would injure the woolly mammoth than killing it.

Why is mud more likely than sand to fossilize an organism?
Mud is more likely than sand to fossilize an organism because mud has finer particles that can fill in cavities and preserve details of the organism's structure. In contrast, the looser nature of sand may not provide the same level of protection and support for fossilization.
What would most likely leave fossil remains a jellyfish a fox or a moth?
A clam is more likely to fossilize than a jellyfish.
Why are organisms that are buried rapidly more likely to fossilize than those who are buried slowly or not at all?
Organisms that are buried rapidly are more likely to fossilize because quick burial protects them from decomposition, scavenging, and environmental factors that can destroy remains. Rapid sediment accumulation also creates conditions conducive to mineralization, where organic materials are replaced by minerals, forming fossils. In contrast, organisms buried slowly or not at all are more exposed to decay and weathering, reducing the chances of fossil formation.
Would you more likely find the fossil remains of a fox or moth?
A fox would be the most likely. A moth is smaller, and therefore would take less time to decompose. However, for anything to(technically) fossilize takes a very long time
What is the difference between a Mammoth and a Mastadon?

Does a caterpillar have more than 4 legs?
