frozen fossil
Fern fossils come from ferns. Ferns are plants, not animals. Hence, fern fossils are plants, not animals.
Fern fossils found in present-day Arctic regions suggest that the area was once much warmer and more conducive to fern growth, likely during a period of time when the Earth’s climate was different. This points to significant climate change in the region over geological time scales.
The presence of the fossil fern Glossopteris supported Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift. Glossopteris fossils were found on multiple continents that are now widely separated, indicating that these landmasses were once connected and later drifted apart.
A fern fossil is an example of a preserved ancient plant specimen that provides valuable information about plant evolution, biodiversity, and environmental conditions in the past. By studying fern fossils, researchers can gain insights into the history of plant life on Earth and how plants have adapted to changing climates over millions of years.
Wegener used the presence of Glossopteris fossils, a type of fern-like plant, to support his idea of continental drift. These fossils were found across multiple continents that currently have widely separated coastlines, suggesting they were once part of a single landmass.
Fossils of animals or plants are commonly preserved in sedimentary rocks. These fossils form when the remains of organisms are buried in sediment, which gradually hardens into rock, preserving the shape and structure of the original organism. Examples include dinosaur bones in sandstone or fern leaves in shale.

The homophone of fern is "firn."
A fern grows from a fern spore.
The abundance of fern spore fossils in rock layers right above the K-T boundary typically shows a notable increase, a phenomenon known as the "fern spike." This spike is often interpreted as a response to the environmental disruptions caused by the mass extinction event that occurred around 66 million years ago, which wiped out many plant species. As ecosystems began to recover, ferns, which are typically resilient and opportunistic, proliferated in the altered landscapes. This pattern reflects the initial stages of ecological succession following the extinction event.
yes No, the silver fern can not be a tree fern. Cythea and Alsophila are tree ferns
