Answer 2

The remains or impression of prehistoric plants or animals embedded in rock and petrified in form.this is called fossils.they are important because they show the types of plants and animals that were on the earth in different times at the past

Scientists combine several well-tested techniques to find out the ages of fossils. The most important are Relative Dating, in which fossils and layers of rock are placed in order from older to younger, and Radiometric Dating, which allows the actual ages of certain types of rock to be calculated.
