What is the evidence of seafloor spreading?
Animal fossils have been found in many places in the ocean.
What is the fact that similar fossils are found on the both sides of the ocean is evidence of?
continental drift
What type of rock will most likely contain the fossils of animals that once lived in the ocean?
Sedimentary rock is the most likely type of rock to contain fossils of animals that once lived in the ocean. This is because sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and compaction of sediments, which can entomb and preserve the remains of organisms over time.
How I can I identify a fossil I have found from the ocean?
First, be sure it is actually a fossil! In terms of identifying, there are millions of different fossils, let alone being able to collect something that is in a complete piece! Best thing to do is go to palaeontology.com or the science museum in London has a website, and they can help. There are also some simple guide books that explain the most common fossils to be found.
How does the age of fossils found in seafloor?
Fossils found on the seafloor can be dated using techniques such as radiometric dating or stratigraphic correlation. By analyzing the rock layers and the types of fossils found in them, scientists can determine the age of the fossils and the seafloor where they were discovered. This helps in understanding the history of the ocean and the evolution of marine life.
Paleontologists noticed that these were the same on different continents even though the continents were separated by ocean?
The same rocks and minerals from the same batch, dinosaur fossils dating back to the same time periods, natural landforms and structures can be found on completely separate continents. This evidence supports the Plate Techtonics and Continental Drift theories.
What are the deepest fossils ever found and where were they discovered?
The deepest fossils ever found are microbial fossils discovered in rocks from the ocean floor, known as serpentinized peridotites, in the Samail Ophiolite in Oman.
The fact that similar fossils are found on both sides of the ocean is the evidence of what?
Pangaea
What are some features of the ocean floor that provide evidence for plate tectonics?

Why are very fossils found in rocks made from sediment that laid down in deep ocean waters?
Isn't it, " Why are very FEW fossils found in rocks made from sediment that laid down in deep ocean waters?"and i thought you would know.
What is the Fauna found in the ocena?
The animals can be found in the ocean are fishes, dolphins, whales, eels etc.. The animals can be found in the ocean are fishes, dolphins, whales, eels etc..
What evidence do you have that mountains were once part of the ocean floor?
Some were, some were not. Those that were will have sea fossils of plants and animals.
Are the organisms found in water the same all over the world?
No, there are different animals found in different parts of the ocean and there are also many differences between animals found in the ocean verse animals found in fresh water bodies
Why the fossils of an ocean fish found on two different continents would not be good evidence of continental drift?
Because there's really just one big ocean. A fish would be able to travel ANYWHERE in it. well, because of Pangaea, the continents where in a huge "blob" so when the first fish where created, there where some on the eastern south America and western Africa, when the continents moved apart with the time, there where still some fossils of those specific animals, ocean animals in this case...
