Question

A geologist is studying layers of rock. He finds a fossil of a bony fish. According to the law of faunal and floral succession, what new type of fossil would he most likely find next, in the layers of rock above? a fossil of an amphibian a fossil of a reptile a fossil of a trylobite a fossil of a human

Answer 1

The answer is a fossil of an amphibian. Fossils are shaped in various distinctive ways, yet most are framed when a plant or creature passes on in a watery domain and is covered in mud and residue. Delicate tissues rapidly break down leaving the hard bones or shells behind. After some time silt works over the top and solidifies into shake.

Your answer is a fossil of an amphibian.
