Sedimentary rocks can contain fossils because, unlike most igneous and metamorphic rocks, they form at temperatures and pressures that do not destroy fossil remains.

Answer:

Dead organisms can become sedimentswhich may, under the right conditions, become sedimentary rock.Unlike most igneous and metamorphic rocks, sedimentary rocks form at temperatures and pressures that do not destroy fossil remnants.

Sedimentary rocks are formed by the pressure over millions years of organic material, inorganic material, sediment of course, and earth piling up over itself. Metamorphic rock and igneous rock originate either below the surface where plants lived and creatures roamed, or the heat from volcanic activity transformed everything. Sedimentary rock formation is the only geologic activity that permits and allows organic material preservation and hence fossil formation.
