What type of geographic formation were many of the artifacts and fossils found?

Most fossils are found in sedimentary rock. This is because sediments (soil, sand, etc) pile on top of bones and then solidify into rock, over time, preserving fossils. Because these generally remain buried very deep, it does make it easier to find fossils in areas where the ground has been pushed upward by the formation of mountain ranges. Thus, sedimentary rock is nearly always the material fossils are found in, and mountains make it a little easier to find fossils.


Can petrified fossils form when the minerals in water make a copy of the organism?

Yes, petrified fossils can form when the organic material of an organism is replaced by minerals from water over time. This process is called permineralization, where minerals fill in the pores and cavities of the organism's remains, creating a detailed replica of the original structure.


How can Scavengers and bacteria make it difficult for fossils to form?

Scavengers can quickly consume carcasses, preventing them from becoming fossilized. Bacteria can also break down organic material before it has a chance to become fossilized. Both scavengers and bacteria can disturb or destroy potential fossils by moving bones, scattering pieces, or degrading the remains.


How can uplift help make fossils easier to find?

Uplift can bring buried fossils closer to the Earth's surface where they can be more easily exposed through erosion or other natural processes. This increased accessibility can make it easier for researchers and paleontologists to locate and study fossils.


Would teuthid fossils make good index fossils?

Depends on the type of eurypterid. In short, no; we don't know enough about them to say that they are only found in certain time zones.

How do people make fossils?

People don't make fossils. Fossils are remains of or the impressions of organisms which were once alive. You can find fossils if you look at the right rocks, you can split the right rock and see the fossils inside. You can also clean pieces of rock from around the fossil to show more detail, but you don't make them.

How do fossils transform into oil over time?

Fossils transform into oil over time through a process called diagenesis. This involves the burial of organic material, such as dead plants and animals, deep underground where high pressure and temperature cause chemical changes. Over millions of years, these changes turn the organic material into hydrocarbons, which make up crude oil.
