Fossils. Essential Question How can fossils be used to help explain what happened in the past?
Remains of once living organisms. Form from decay and are buried by sediment. Sediment hardens into rock and preserves the shape of the organisms.
Many things cause this to happen. There are two types of weathering: Mechanical (physical) Chemical.
