because they most likely came from different areas. so they didn't have the same type of climate. another possibility is that amber traps only small animals or insects it seems
What else can I help you with?
What are 4 materials that fossils can be found in?
amber, petrified fossils, trace fossils, carbon films, molds, and cast.
Are all fossils found in rock?
Limestone, shale, sandstone, and chert are the biggies when it comes to fossils.
What is the clear golden material that insect fossils can be found?
Amber is the clear golden material where insect fossils can be found. It forms from tree resin that hardens over time, preserving insects and other organisms trapped within it. Amber provides valuable insights into prehistoric ecosystems and the evolution of insects.
Fossils may be found in amber?
Yes, fossils can be found preserved in amber. Amber is fossilized tree resin that can capture and preserve insects, small animals, and even plant materials. This provides valuable insights into ancient ecosystems and evolution.
Is usually found near a volcano?
Igneous rocks and volcanic minerals are usually found near a volcano.
What are 4 materials that fossils can be found in?
amber, petrified fossils, trace fossils, carbon films, molds, and cast.
What can Amber fossils can be found in?
in a rock
What fossils is not found in sedimentary rocks?
Amber.
Where are some of the best insect fossils found?
Amber.
Which kind of organism is more like to be found as a fossils is Amber?
Insects.
Fossils may also be found in?
amber, tar deposits and frozen earth
Why plants fossils found in amber are not usually found in volcanics rocks?
Plants found in amber are typically preserved in resin from trees, which is a process that occurs in forests. Volcanic rocks are formed from magma and do not provide the same type of environment conducive to preserving plant material. Additionally, the high temperatures and pressures associated with volcanic activity would likely destroy any plant material before it could be preserved.
Are all fossils found in rock?
Limestone, shale, sandstone, and chert are the biggies when it comes to fossils.
What kinds of fossils are not preserved?
Things that usually were not made of bone were not preserved. Although there are some like leaves and feathers that were. Also some that were found in amber are those that would not be preserved otherwise.
Why do rock fossils form in sedimantry rock and not in igneous rock?
Fossils usually form when the remains of an organism are buried gently under sediments which later turn into stone. Intrusive igneous rocks form at depths within Earth where no life is found. Extrusive igneous (volcanic) rocks are so hot when they are deposited that any remains of organisms are usually incinerated. Fossils do occur in volcanic rocks, but very rarely.
How can the age of a rock be related to fossils?
If a lava flow or bed of volcanic ash was dated using isotopic dating methods and fossils were found in a sedimentary rock beneath the volcanic rock, it can be surmised that the fossils were older than the lava or ash. If the same species of fossils were found in another part of the world it would make sense that the rocks there were the same age as previous fossils. By cross checking with many other areas with other volcanic rocks, it can be found that all the rocks around the world containing those fossils were of a similar age.
Fossils are usually found in?
Sedimentary rocks, such as limestone or shale, are the most common type of rock where fossils are found. These rocks form when layers of sediment gradually build up and harden over time, preserving the remains of plants and animals. Fossils can also be found in other types of rocks, such as sandstone or volcanic ash deposits.
