What is a type of fossil that is not an organism?
A mold or cast fossil is an example of a fossil that is not an organism. These fossils are formed when an organism's remains decay and leave behind an impression in sediment, creating a negative mold, or when minerals fill in the mold to create a positive cast.
Why do most living tihngs not leave a fossil?
because a fossil is created from something that hardened while the animal was dead in it. if you leave a corps out in the open then most of it will be eaten, but if that same corps was covered in some oil or sap then it could potentially become a fossil after about a miilion yeaRS
What is a trace of long dead organism?
A trace of a long dead organism could be a fossilized imprint, track, or remains left behind in sedimentary rock. These traces provide valuable information about the organism's existence, behavior, and environment in the past. Scientists study these traces to learn more about ancient life on Earth.
What is a mo fossil?
* A mold fossil is a fossil that is molded onto a rock or mud and other stuff like that considering that the object turns into a mold or fossil it has tofossilize into something wet the drys up into something hard. * A mold fossil could take up to a year to a month to dry up into a mold fossil so will its drying up or already dry it's laying in the ground or water waiting to be discovered you can tell how old a fossil is by looking at the layers so next time you find a mold fossil or any type of fossil look at the layers it has and you will no how old it is or how long its been siting there and that's what a mold fossil is so now you have your answer on what a mold fossil is.

What do you call a mineralized trace of a living organism preserved in rock?
A trace fossil can be anything from a coprolite (faeces) to a footprint. It is anything which proves the creature's existence without being the actual creature itself. For example, an ammonite shell is proof of its individual existence, but its faeces give us little information about its appearance. A fossil could be a cast, mold, or true form fossil.
What type of fossil is a frozen fossil?
A preserved fossil is an organism or Animal that has been PERFECTLY PRESERVED for lots of years, or however old it may be. For example, a wooly mammoth frozen in the ice for millions of years would be known as a preserved fossil.There are 2 different types of fossil preservation- preservation with alteration and without. With alteration also has different types. The type of organism you are looking for depends on the how it was preserved.
What is example of a question you could ask about a fossil of an extinct organism?
You could ask what era is it from.
What is something that is not preserved?

the water dries up
How long was a mummy preserved for?
As long as it could be preserved.
What part of our body could be preserved as a fossil?
Any part of the body can be preserved as a fossil. The most common parts of the body to be fossilised are the hard parts such as claws, teeth and bones but it is also possible to fossilise soft tissue as well. One example of Thescelosaurus shows extensive soft tissue fossilisation. It was given the nick name of "Willo" the dinosaur with a heart.

How could a leaf fossil be in a dry bare desert area?
A leaf fossil could be found in a dry bare desert area if the environment was once wet and lush, and over time, due to geological changes such as shifting tectonic plates or climate change, the area became dry and barren. The leaf could have been buried by sediment and preserved over millions of years to become a fossil.
DrThakkar was studying a fossil from a dig in a desert when he noticed that the organism had evidence of fins what would this most likely tell Dr Thakkar?
The presence of fins on a fossil suggests that the organism likely lived in water at some point in its life. This could indicate that the area where the dig took place was once covered by water or that the organism had adapted to an aquatic environment.
