Resumen del Recurso

Fossils
  1. Fossils are the remains of plant and animal from many years ago
    1. Fossils form in rock in one of three ways:
      1. 1) Form Gradual Replacement by minerals ( Most Fossils happen this way)
        1. Teeth, shells, bones ect... - don't decay easily
          1. Eventually replaced by minerals as they decay forming a rock like substance
        2. 2) From casts and impressions
          1. Sometime fossils are form when organism is buried in soft materials (like clay)
            1. It hardens around it, organism decay
              1. Leaving a cast (i.e Animal borrow or plants roots)
              2. When footprints in clay (soft material) leaving a impression when then it harden.
            2. Form Preservation in place where no decay happens
              1. In Amber ( Fossilised resin)
                1. Like in Juarssic Park
                  1. No oxygen or moisture so decay microbes can't survive.
                  2. Glaciers
                    1. Too cold for decay microbes can't survive
                    2. Peat bogs
                      1. Too acidic for decay microbes to survive
