Geology pt.2
  1. Fossils
    1. Remains
      1. Rare- soft parts of an organism
        1. Original hard parts- bones, shells
        2. Petrified wood and bones
          1. Remains changed to stone
            1. Each cell replaced by stone
            2. Impressions
              1. Hard part dissolves
                1. Leaves impression in surrounding rock
                2. Traces
                  1. Preserved footprints
                  2. Random
                    1. Classified like animals and plants
                      1. Harder to find on land
                        1. Less sediment deposited
                          1. Less disturbance
                          2. P&A decompose quick with air
                            1. Decomposition rate slows when buried
                              1. Preserved naturally in the crust
                                1. Dating- relies on Zone/Index fossils
                              2. Metamorphic Rocks
