What are fossils? Where are these found?
Answers
Answer:
Fossils are typically found in sedimentary rocks and occasionally some fine-grained, low-grade metamorphic rocks. Sometimes the fossils have been removed, leaving moulds in the surrounding rock, or the moulds may have later been filled by other materials, forming casts of the original fossils.
Answer:
Fossils are solidified remains, traces or trails of plants, animals, insects or any other ancient life forms that are preserved by natural process. Most of the fossils are formed by the process of fossilization.
Most fossils are found in sedimentary rock. Sedimentary rock is formed by dirt (sand, silt, or clay) and debris that settles to the bottom of an ocean or lake and compresses for such a long time that it becomes hard as a rock. Limestone and sandstone are types of sedimentary rock that commonly have fossils.
