Are some plants fossils imprints?
No current plants, but some fossil imprints are of long dead plants (usually from about 1/4 billion yeas ago).
If there are 6 trees in a row and between each one there are ferns how many ferns are there?
How many ferns (that is a plural!) between the trees?If there are equal numbers of ferns in between each pair of trees: Five times as many ferns as between one pair.
What continents was a fern located on?
Ferns and their fossil remains have been found on every continent
What ancient plants were called seed ferns?
The plants known as seed ferns were ancient, fern-like plants that produced seeds instead of spores for reproduction. They thrived during the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras, with fossil evidence indicating they were widespread and diverse. Despite their name, seed ferns were not true ferns, but early gymnosperms that eventually gave rise to modern seed plants.
What kind of animal part leaves the most distinct fossil?
Animal parts that are soft and don't have a skeleton leave the worst imprints. Fossils are made with animal parts that are hard and durable.
What link do seed ferns represent in fossil record?
The first fossil records of vascular plants that is land plants with vascular tissues Fossil ferns and seed ferns include Pecopteris Cyclopteris
What were fossil tree ferns?

Which word means the remains or imprints of once-living organisms found in layers of rock?
Fossil.
What is the difference between a fossil and an imprint?
A fossil is the preserved remains or traces of a once-living organism, while an imprint is a mark or indentation left behind by an organism on a surface. Fossils can include imprints, but not all imprints are considered fossils. Fossils provide more detailed information about the organism's structure and biology, while imprints are more surface-level.
Is there anything such as fossil of sponges?
yes, but they are only usually imprints as sponges decompose after a certain amount of time
What factors have turned ferns into fossil fuels over thousand of years?
pressure and heat
What is the black substance in fern imprints?
The black substance in fern imprints is typically carbon, which results from the decomposition of organic material over time. When ferns and other plants die, their remains can become buried and subjected to heat and pressure, leading to fossilization. This process can create impressions or imprints of the plants in sedimentary rock, where the carbon content remains visible as dark marks. These imprints provide valuable insights into the types of vegetation that existed in prehistoric environments.
How do ferns that lived millions of years ago provide energy for us today?
The ferns have been compressed into 'coal' and we use coal as a source of energy - hence 'fossil fuels'.
How long has moss been on Earth?
Ferns appeared in fossil records about 360 million years ago.
