17. How Do We Know Evolution Happens? 2. The Fossil Record – ______ are the _______ _________________ found in layers of rock in the Earth. Fossils of ancient organisms remains

18. How Do We Know Evolution Happens? The layers of rock tell the history of the _____, while the _____ found within the rock tell a history of ___. The fossils are thought to be the ________ as the rock they are found in. Earthfossils life same age

19. Go to Section: Sea level Sedimentary rocks form in horizontal layers. When part of Earth’s crust is compressed, a bend in a rock forms, tilting the rock layers. As the surface erodes due to water, wind, waves, or glaciers, the older rock surface is exposed. Movement of Earth’s Crust Section 15-2 Fish die in the ocean and are covered in sediment. Over time and under increasing pressure, the remains becomes fossilized Earthquakes and volcanoes cause uplifting of the layers of the Earth, taking the fossils along Fossils of marine fish found on the mountain- sides of southwest Wyoming, which at one time was covered by an inland sea
