Where are fossils usually formed?

Answer 1

Dead Organisms Are Compressed By Dirt or Remains Of Dead Animals.

Answer 2

Dinosaurs were reptiles and would hatch from eggs. Some of the eggs fossilized so that they are still around today. Of course, they aren't going to be hatching, but they may be viewed at many museums.

Answer 3

I am going to answer this question from an evolutionist standpoint, because it is the most "accepted".

Not all skeletons get fossilized, there are special requirements. First the dinosaur has to die, and settle at the bottom of a river, lake, or other body of water, then is is covered by sediment and the flesh decomposes. The skeleton is preserved by the sediment. More and more sediment is deposited, creating pressure and heat. the pressure and heat turns the bone and surrounding sediment into rock. Supposedly, it takes millions of years to make a fossil.

Answer 4

A person cannot make a fossil, especially from an extinct dinosaur (they are already fossilized or there are no remains to make into a fossil).

The natural fossilization process involves an organism being buried to protect it from weathering and the elements, then the minerals in the bones slowly being dissolved by rain and replaced with more durable minerals, and lastly the soil that the remains are buried in being buried deep enough that pressure turns it into stone, protecting the fossil.

Answer 5

after they all died the bones over time merged with the dirt and mud and became sediment rock and became a fossial.

Answer 6

they die there skin and guts decompose and turn into soil bones and teeth are left turn rock hard lots of dirt covers it as the years pass people dig it up

Answer 7

sedimentary rock
