What type of organism would be most useful as an index fossil?
Those that have hard parts that fossilize, are plentiful, ubiquitous and evolve rapidly.
What is an organism's organic tissue most likely replaced with when an organism is petrified?
Organic tissues in an organism are typically replaced with minerals during the petrification process, forming a fossil. This process helps maintain the original shape and structure of the organism, but the organic material is essentially replaced by minerals over time.
How is a cast mold fossil of a clam different then the organism?

What is a fossil cast?
