Scientists can learn about the evolution and distribution of clam species throughout different time periods by studying clam fossils. Fossilized clams can also provide insight into past environments, such as water temperatures and oxygen levels, as well as help determine the age of rocks and sediment layers in which they are found. Additionally, clam fossils can offer information on past biodiversity and ecological interactions.
