It is a relative dating technique.

As a result, rocks that are otherwise similar, but are now separated by a valley or other erosional feature, can be assumed to be originally continuous.]]> 2018-01-23 21:51:23 UTC https://padlet.com/3065141/8vpatbpnl7es/wish/224030535 3065141 https://padlet.com/3065141/8vpatbpnl7es/wish/224030994 Cross-cutting relationships is a principle of geology that states that the geologic feature which cutsanother is the younger of the two features.

Many fossil trackways were made by dinosaurs, early tetrapods, and other quadrupeds and bipeds on land. Marine organisms also made many ancient trackways (such as the trails of trilobites and eurypterids like Hibbertopterus).]]> 2018-01-23 21:58:31 UTC https://padlet.com/3065141/8vpatbpnl7es/wish/224032308 3065141 https://padlet.com/3065141/8vpatbpnl7es/wish/224032489 A coprolite is fossilized feces. Coprolites are classified as trace fossils as opposed to body fossils, as they give evidence for the animal's behaviour (in this case, diet) rather than morphology. ]]> 2018-01-23 21:59:27 UTC https://padlet.com/3065141/8vpatbpnl7es/wish/224032489 3065141 https://padlet.com/3065141/8vpatbpnl7es/wish/224032874 A true form fossil is a fossil of the whole/entire body of the organism, like an actual animal or animal part.
