What is a Fossil? I am confused right now.

In a nutshell, fossils are the remains of plants

and animals from millions of years ago.

So, the answer would be C, the remains of a dead organism.

Fossils look like rocks with a design or picture in them

and the dead plant or animal becomes part of the rock.

Fossils usually form when a dead plant

or animal lies buried in the sand or the mud.
