thought they were gorilla noses that fell off

No idea what this guy was talking about. :o
preserved remains of ancient organisms. <------------- is the answer your looking for :D
evidence in real time - finches fossil evidence evidence now backed up by genetics geological evidence of strata not just fossils
Early man scholars rejected fossils as a means to trace human evolution because they held religious or cultural beliefs that contradicted the idea of human evolution. Additionally, fossils were not well understood or widely accepted as evidence of human ancestry at the time.
People want to know about fossils because they provide evidence of past life forms and help us understand the history of life on Earth. Studying fossils can also provide insights into evolution, ancient environments, and how living organisms have adapted over time. Additionally, fossils can help us make predictions about future biodiversity and environmental changes.
You could sell fossils or do work for people.
Index fossils (also known as guide fossils, indicator fossils or zone fossils).
People look for fossils to study and understand the Earth's history, evolution of species, and environmental changes over time. Fossils provide valuable information about life forms that existed millions of years ago and help scientists piece together the puzzle of life on our planet.
The study of fossils represent the evolution of species by the time period between when they became fossils and what the ancestory line is
Crocodiles could be considered to be "living fossils" as they have survived on Earth from the time of the dinosaurs.
Fossils provide physical evidence of extinct organisms and show a progression of forms over time, supporting the concept of evolution through natural selection. Biochemicals, such as DNA and proteins, can be compared between different species to reveal shared genetic sequences, indicating a common ancestry and supporting the theory of evolution.
The material on the mountains was not always up there. Mountains are generally created by what is called uplift. And places that were under water and then had remains laid down and fossilized can be uplifted through long periods of time to create mountains. The fossils are then found up there in the mountains. The geologic process is fairly well understood and modeled by geologists.
over time.
yeah
