The plant or animal must be encased in a substance that prevents destruction or erosion. Ice, tar, or layers of mud or clay can isolate the remains from sunlight, air, and consumption by other lifeforms. Over time, a mineralized form or a rock cast will result in a fossil or fossil imprint.

What were the living conditions for a prehistoric alligator?
The fossil record shows that they lived in similar conditions as today.
Which conditions are best for fossil formation?
Probably the best condition for fossil creation/preservation would be aqueous catastrophism(ie... flood), stratum deposited in rapid succession. Quick coverage of plant or life form would/do present terrific fossils.The answer of 'Quick freezing' is not so likely. I can't think of anywhere there would suddenly be 'flash freezing' upon our planet. Life forms would have a chance to move away from such conditions of cold and plants would die out. Although death within a cold temperature area would lend to good preservation of a life form."Quick Freezing"
Fossil and sedimentary rocks form under specific conditions so their presence in certain lacations provides evidence for?

Why do storks migrate?
Storks migrate for the same reason as every other bird. They favor warmer weather conditions, so they migrate in the winter when their location becomes cooler.

What are the conditions that favor the formation of built-up edge?
One of the conditions that favor the formation of a built-up edge is low cutting speed. The metal being cut should also work-harden and should be reluctant to recover such as alloys like steel.
What is the possibility that tornadoes could start forming?
If general weather conditions favor the formation of tornadoes then a tornado watch is issued.
The three factors which are important in fossil formation are?
Factors that important in fossil formation include temperature and pressure. Also, the presence of the correct ingredients in important in fossil formation.
How does fossil formation relate to the formation of sedimentary rock?
you have nothing
Is carbon dioxide released by fossil fuel formation?
No, formation of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.Burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide.
What conditions led to formation of labor unions?
What is the three conditions that led to the formation of labor unions?
Is fossil fuel rewnable or nonrewnable?
Fossil fuels are non renewable.It takes millions of years for the formation of fossil fuels.That is why they are in this category.
What happened to organisms that led to the formation of fossil fuels?
they decayed
