This is hilarious -- I just did a Google Images search on that image, and Google returned the same answer...jedishrfu said:a rock?
Dinosaur fossils are the preserved remains or traces of ancient dinosaurs that lived millions of years ago. They can include bones, teeth, footprints, and even soft tissues.
Dinosaur fossils are formed through a process called fossilization. This occurs when a dinosaur dies and is quickly buried by sediment, such as sand or mud. Over time, the sediment hardens into rock, preserving the dinosaur's remains.
Dinosaur fossils have been found on every continent on Earth. However, the majority of fossils have been discovered in North America, South America, and Asia.
Scientists study dinosaur fossils by carefully excavating them from the ground and examining them in a laboratory. They can also use advanced technologies, such as CT scans and 3D imaging, to learn more about the structure and anatomy of the fossils.
Dinosaur fossils provide important clues about the physical characteristics, behavior, and evolutionary history of dinosaurs. They also help scientists understand the environment and climate during the time when dinosaurs roamed the Earth.
