Question

What happens to insects when they get trapped in amber?

  1. They get preserved as a whole.
  2. They form casts.
  3. They leave imprints.
  4. They get mineralized.

hintHint:

In Amber fossils whole organisms are get fossilised.

The correct answer is: They get preserved as a whole.


    They get preserved as a whole
    • The organisms in Amber get preserved as a whole and are said as amber fossils.
    • Amber is resin of plant which becomes rigid .

    The Fossils in which any small organism trapped in resin of tree which becomes rigid after burring in soil are called Amber fossils.

    A dead organism is more likely to become a fossil if it contains _________ parts like teeth or bones.

    • Fossils are the preserved parts for many years so the parts have ability to resist decaying can become fossils only.
    • Hard parts of organisms like shells, bones and teeth etc are made up of calcium carbonate which is very strong.
    • So the hard parts have greater ability to don't decay and become fossils than the soft parts.
    • As a result, an organism is more likely to become fossil if it contains Hard parts as compared to soft parts.
