Most fossils form in sedimentary rock, which is created by the deposition and accumulation of sediments over time. The most common types of sedimentary rock that preserve fossils are shale, sandstone, and limestone.
Well, the tracks are examples of trace fossils. Trace fossils are not fossils in the traditional sense. Instead, they are fossils of something other than the animal or plant's form, like a animal track or burrow, that tells us an animal has been there.
Fossils are most likely to be found in sedimentary rocks. This is because these rocks form from layers of sand, dirt, and debris that accumulate over time and can preserve the remains of plants and animals. Sedimentary rocks often have distinct layers that can hold fossils within them.
Most fossils are found in sedimentary rock, which is the most common type of rock on Earth. Sedimentary rocks form when particles of sediment are deposited by water or wind, and then hardened over time.
Fossils have layer upon layer of hardened tissue. Therefore they are quite rough in texture where the insides are more malleable. Depending on what the fossil is of some fossils give off a sour aroma. Most of the time animal fossils deteriate at a faster rate than fossils of humans or shells. Fossils are a unique study and I you study them further.
Fossils can form by: Freezing Amber Asphalt Carbonization
In what ways are fossils useful to geologist?
Fossils can form from pretty much anything. They normally form from animals fish and objects such as jewelry. Fossils are very unique things and show us what happened in history :) booooooooooggggggggggggiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeee mmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnn is a fossil as well ;)
A lamprophyre is a type of ultramafic intrusive igneous rock. It is very rare for fossils to be formed in igneous rocks (and they usually only form as mold fossils in extrusive deposits). As such fossils will not form in lamprophyres.
Index fossils (also known as guide fossils, indicator fossils or zone fossils).
Flowers Fossils come out of sedimentary rock. == ==

The 5 types of fossils are ...Imprint Fossils- an organism leaving an imprint on sediment that later hardens into rock.Mineralization Fossils- when minerals replace wood or bone to create a piece of petrified wood or a mineralization bone fossilsFrozen Fossils- when something like an animal gets taped in ice and remains their frozenCast Fossils- when it fills up a hollow moldfossils in amber- when an insect gets stuck in amber
Fossils form when something dies and it decays over theyears. Thenall you see are the bones. Like dinosaurs bones!
That question can only be answered by a question. Why do you think animals form the best fossils? This question is only a opinion.
The oldest known fossils are up to 3.5 billion years old.
