I WONDER - Are Fossils The Same As Bones? Me Pregunto - Los Fósiles Son Lo Mismo Que Los Huesos?

When plants or animals die and are buried under layers of earth, they undergo compression and turn into sedimentary rocks. This process preserves the original shape of bones and shells, allowing us to study the forms of ancient life.
