What are the five types of fossils that can be found in rock?
Five types of fossils found in rocks are petrified fossils (minerals replace organic matter), mold fossils (imprint of an organism), cast fossils (mold filled with minerals), carbon films (thin layer of carbon residue), and trace fossils (evidence of organism's activity).
What are the natural substance found in rocks?
Some natural substances found in rocks include minerals like quartz, mica, feldspar, and calcite. Rocks can also contain elements like silicon, oxygen, aluminum, and iron. Minerals and elements in rocks contribute to their composition and properties.
What is the difference between rocks and fossils?
A rock is combinations of minerals and either has to be an igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary rock. A mineral is a solid that was formed in nature, has a definite chemical makeup, and has a crystal structure.

Not all rocks are made of minerals. Rocks can be composed of minerals or can be made up of organic materials like shells, fossils, or volcanic glass. Some rocks, like coal or obsidian, do not contain minerals but are still considered rocks.
What are the difference types of fossils?
Mold fossils- an empty space is left when an organism is buried in sedimentary and it decays.Cast fossils- Minerals in rocks fill space left by a decayed organism.(replica)Trace fossils- Markings left by an animal. (footprints, trail, or burrow)Petrified fossils- Minerals penetrate and replace all or part of an organism.Imprint fossils
