The statement which is missing is that the the dead and decaying parts of the organism gets trapped with the layers of the soil and get compress to form fossils.
Explanation:
- Fossil is made up of dead and decaying organisms stop the first step is the soft portion gets difficult and the heart portion gets trapped between different layers of the tectonic plate which is present in the earth.
- As a result of this due to high temperature and high pressure they get differentiated into a different type of carbonic substance. This forms fossils rocks.
