Answer
6 types of Fossils?   Mold Fossil, Cast Fossil, Petrified Fossil, Preserved Fossil, Carbonized Fossil, Trace Fossil

Mold Fossil And Cast Fossil?   mold- when a dead organism is covered with sediments which turn into rock. cast- when a mold is filled with sand or mud that will harden into an organisms shape.  
🗑
Petrified And Preserved Fossil?   Petrified- when minerals soak into buried remains, hardening it. Presevered-when an organism is trapped in rock, ice, tar, and amber.  
🗑
Carbonized And Trace Fossil?   Carbonized- When an organism is pressed between layers of soft mud that hardens leaving a carbon footprint Trace- when an organism leaves a footprint or burrow  
🗑
Fossils Are Important Because......   They provide information about earth's history. shows where certain organisms lived. Shows extinct. evolution.  
🗑
