Do most animals and plants that once lived on Earth have left fossil evidence?

No, most animals and plants that have lived on Earth do not leave fossil evidence. Fossilization is a rare process that only occurs under specific conditions, so many organisms decompose before they can become fossils. This is why the fossil record is incomplete and biased towards certain types of organisms.


Are the soft parts of organisms most likely to become fossils?

No, the soft parts of organisms are not most likely to become fossils. Fossilization primarily favors hard parts like bones, shells, and teeth, as they are more durable and resistant to decay. Soft tissues decompose quickly and are less likely to be preserved unless specific conditions, such as rapid burial in anoxic environments, occur. Consequently, soft-bodied organisms are rarely found in the fossil record.


Why not all creatures from fossils?

Not all creatures are found as fossils due to a variety of factors, including the conditions required for fossilization, which are rare. Most organisms decompose quickly after death, and only those that are buried rapidly in sediment or have hard parts like bones or shells are more likely to become fossilized. Additionally, geological processes can erode or destroy fossils over time, and some environments are less conducive to fossil formation than others. As a result, the fossil record is incomplete and biased toward certain types of organisms and environments.


What three hard structures do organisms that are more likely to become fossils have?

The most common fossils found are from bones, teeth and claws. Soft tissue such as skin, muscle and internal organs rarely become fossils because they generally decay far to quickly for the normal processes of fossilization.


How does the cell theory describe the levels of organizations of living organisms?

The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization of organisms. Although organisms such as humans, dogs, and trees can become very large and complex, the cell remains the simplest, most basic component of any organism.
