How does fossil formation relate to the formation of sedimentary rock?
you have nothing
How can you tell sedimentary rocks from others?
== == The age of a sedimentary rock formation can be estimated by comparing it to radiometrically dated rock formations that contain the same fossil organisms. Geologic time categories have been identified according to the radiometric dating of fossils and the fact that they appear only in certain time periods. Therefore, if you look at a rock formation and find a trilobite fossil that has been identified by previous dating techniques as Cambrian, you can be fairly certain that the formation you are looking at is also Cambrian.
You find a rock deep in the ocean that contains a fossil What kind of rock is this?
Sedimentary is found below the ocean floor or area with water
How do you find a find a ITE?
If the rock is sedimentary in origin and if it has a repeating organized pattern or resembles a shell or other organism that is alive today it may be a fossil. There are numerous books in stores or libraries with pictures of fossil organisms that you can compare with your finds.
What happens to a fossil when the sedimentary rock it was in turned into a metamorphic rock?
As in what process causes this? if so it is usually under heat and pressure. Depending on what kind of rick it is depends on the resultant metamorphic rock e.g Shale-->Slate etc
How does fossil formation relate to the formation of sedimentary rock?
you have nothing
Which is not the process in the formation of sedimentary rocks?
how does the fossil record provide evidence for evolution?!
Which is not a process involved in the formation of sedimentary rocks?
Cementing is not a process involved in the formation of sedimentary rock.
What is a fossil formed in sedimentary rock leaving a hollow area is called?
The Answer to this is mold. It leaves a hollow space in the fossil so you can see the formation.
What is the best type of rock for fossil formation?
Sedimentary rocks (such as shale, sandstone, and limestone) are the best types of rock for fossil formation. These rocks are formed from layers of sediment that can preserve and protect fossils over time. Additionally, the fine-grained nature of sedimentary rocks allows for the detailed preservation of fossils.
Is igneous or sedimentary rock more likely to contain fossil?
sedimentary
Is a sedimentary rock a fossil?
A fossil is any record of an organism preserved in rock, whether it be igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic. Nearly all fossils are discovered in sedimentary rock.
What is an animal fossil buried in?
An animal fossil can be buried in sedimentary rock layers such as sandstone, shale, or limestone that have accumulated over time. The fossilization process occurs when the remains of an animal are buried quickly after death, protecting them from decay and allowing for the formation of a fossil.
Is pressure a factor of a fossil fuel?
Pressure is not a factor in the formation of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are primarily formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals that were buried under sedimentary layers over millions of years. The heat and compression from these layers transform the organic material into fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas.
What characteristics make these enviorment a well suited for fossil formation?
A well-suited environment for fossil formation includes sedimentation conditions that rapidly bury remains to protect them from decay and scavengers, as well as an absence of oxygen to slow decomposition. Additionally, environments with low acidity levels help preserve the organic material, contributing to fossil formation.
What type of rock is a fossil?
A fossil is evidence of an organisms existence, not a type of rock. Most fossils are found in sedimentary rocks.
What fossil fuel is sometimes considered a type of organic sedimentary rock?
Coal is the fossil fuel sometimes considered a organic sedimentary rock.
