Question
scenarios that would most likely result in fossilization include
○ humans who are quickly buried in volcanic ash.
○ a boar that is trapped in a tar pit and sinks quickly.
○ a snake that dies and is quickly covered in soft mud.
○ a jellyfish that dies and slowly floats to the ocean floor.
○ a beetle that becomes trapped in tree sap.
Fossilization requires rapid burial to prevent decomposition. Volcanic ash (humans), tar pits (boar), soft mud (snake), and tree sap (beetle) all provide rapid - burial scenarios. Jellyfish floating slowly decompose before fossilization.
