Remains of once living organisms. Form from decay and are buried by sediment. Sediment hardens into rock and preserves the shape of the organisms.

The Fossil Record. 1. Fossils are the remains of organisms that lived in a previous geologic time. 2. The study of these fossils is called paleontology.

petrification a process in which minerals replace the tissues of a living thing Petrified Wood Petrified DragonflyPetrified Trilobite Petrified Coral

trace fossil naturally preserved evidence of animal activity (footprints) Footprints Burrows Dino Poop Coprolite

mold mark or cavity made in sedimentary rock by a shell or other body

cast the type of fossil that forms when sediment fills in the cavity left by a decomposed organism

fossil record The fossil record includes all of the artifacts that have been fossilized all over the world. When viewed together, the fossil record can provide interesting information about the change of life on Earth, with examples of different types of organisms. Adapted from

index fossil fossil found in the rock layers of only one geologic age used to establish the age of rock layers
