Answer:
Preserved soft tissue is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Amber is another kind of fossilization in when the creature is caught in a biologically inert environment and completely preserved. "Chitinous bones are scarcely changed, but the soft interior tissues are gone" for insects, which typically exist in this kind of fossilization.
- Tiny amber picture Many abiotic environmental elements, such as oxidative air and temperature, as well as biotic variables such as bacteria and scavengers, hasten the decomposition of a dead creature. Avoiding these variables would help in the preservation of the creature and, eventually, the production of amber.
- Amber is essentially the petrified resin of an early Tertiary coniferous tree. The resin is a "complex combination of terpenoid chemicals, acids, and alcohols exuded from plant parenchyma," according to Poinar.
- One distinction between resin and sap is the latter's solubility in water, as the majority of it is water from the tree's xylem (water transportation system).
- Mold fossils are fossilized imprints in the substrate. The substrate is the rock or silt on which fossil imprints. Mold fossils, as opposed to cast fossils, are hollow.
- In other words, it is reversed. Skin, leaves, teeth, claws, and embryos are examples of common mold fossil
