the body of an animal is more likely to become fossilized if it:
A. Is buried deeply in the ground
B: is left on the surface of the ground
C: does not contain bones or other hard body parts
D: all of the above are about equally likely to result in fossilization

Respuesta :

A - Is buried deeply in the ground

This is because if it is buried deeply in the ground, it is less likely to be eaten or decomposed by other animals, fungi, etc.

The explanation above causes option B and D to be cancelled out.

C is incorrect as if there are no bones, there is nothing to really fossilize as most fossils are bones.

Hope this helps!

The answer is A. Is buried deeply in the ground
