Fossils typically form in environments where sediment accumulates, such as riverbeds, lakes, or ocean floors, which provide the necessary conditions for burial and preservation. The ground must be stable and free from disturbances that could erode or destroy the remains. Additionally, low-oxygen environments are often ideal for fossilization, as they slow down decomposition and promote the preservation of organic material. Overall, suitable conditions include sedimentary environments with minimal disruption.

Fossils can only form when?
Fossils can only form when the remains of a plant or animal are buried in sediment quickly after death. The organic tissues are gradually replaced by minerals from the surrounding environment, creating a fossilized replica of the original organism. The process of fossilization usually requires specific conditions such as lack of oxygen, minimal disturbance, and the presence of water and minerals.
Is aragonite more likely to be found in younger or older fossils?
Aragonite is more likely to be found in younger fossils. This is because aragonite is a less stable form of calcium carbonate compared to calcite, which tends to recrystallize into calcite over time in older fossils.
Are fossils found in sedimentary and metamorphic rocks?
no, fossils are found only in sedimentary rock.
What do the fossils in Pokemon Sapphire turn into?

Why do animals form the best fossils?

Does lamprophyre form fossils?
A lamprophyre is a type of ultramafic intrusive igneous rock. It is very rare for fossils to be formed in igneous rocks (and they usually only form as mold fossils in extrusive deposits). As such fossils will not form in lamprophyres.
Fossils are found only in .?
Sedimentary rocks
Why are most fossils found in sedimentay rock?
Sedimentary rocks are found only at the surface of the ground
Can you actually buy fossils on Pokemon soulsilver no right?
No, you cannot but the only way to find them is by digging them up from the ground
Why aren't most of the found fossils complete organisms?
because fossils are rare to find and in complete form even more rare only 10% or less out of 100% fossils have been found on earth
Why do glaciers form only in certain areas?
because they only form in cold places
Why are sedimentary rocks the only ones that contain fossils?
Sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and cementation of sediments, which can entomb and preserve the remains of plants and animals as fossils. Igneous and metamorphic rocks form from molten material or intense heat and pressure, which would destroy any fossils present.
How come fossils can only form in water?
Because the water needs to bring the minerals into the bone so it will crystallize.
How does a body fossilof an animal form in amber?
Smart kitty: sorry, your answer is wrong. only insects form in amber and animals and reptiles are formed in fossils.
