of carbon atoms. But 
living organisms  use 
only one of these types. 
 Scientists detected high 
levels of this type of 
carbon in ancient rock 
compared to other types 
of carbon. 
 They concluded that there was life on Earth at the time this 
ancient rock formed 3.8 billion years ago.

They are trace fossils, meaning not of the animal's actual body. A coprolite

environments.
The fossil record shows patterns in how species appeared and disappeared in Earth’s history.
Fossils show where and when certain extinct organisms lived. 
Fossils show patterns in how the body plans of organisms changed over time.

billion years. 
 The earliest organisms were single cells, which rarely 
formed fossils. 
 Evidence of these earliest cells was found in rock 
samples with high levels of a type of carbon only found 
in living things.

They are formed from the remains of dead animals and plants.

These are called pseudofossils (false fossils). Some pseudofossils are very convincing and it takes careful observation and wide experience to tell the difference.

Transitional fossils are fossils that have body structures that are found both in an ancestral species and in its descendants.
A transitional fossil may be defined as a fossil which exhibits traits common to both ancestral and derived groups. This is especially important when groups are sharply differentiated. They can show how a species might adapt to survive their new conditions.]]> 2022-01-19 17:51:16 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstencaudill26/Bookmarks/wish/2001083366 Facts about Fossils olivialucas25 https://padlet.com/kirstencaudill26/Bookmarks/wish/2001092303 The fossil record is the record of life on Earth as it is preserved in rock as fossils .
