Paleontology: Difference between revisions

Paleontology is the study if Fossils. They use the fossil remains to better understand the life of organisms. Fossils will contain some interesting knowledge about organisms life and the environment around it. Fossils can show how an organism lived. For example, Amber is a Harden fossilized tree resin. Resin is a sticky substance made by plants. Resin are very sticky and they were able to trap air bubbles. Once scientists were able to analyze the air, they could tell that there were volcano eruptions nearby. Also, fossils can tell us the behavior of an animal. An example could be that paleontologists observed that hadrosaurs lived in bug herds. Paleontologists think that hadrosaurs lived in big herds because there were more than 10,000 skeletons in one site. <ref> [https://www.nationalgeographic.org/encyclopedia/paleontology/ Paleontology] ''NationalGeographic''.

Paleontology doesn't support the theory that God created the world in seven days, but they support the theory of evolution. As we know, fossils can help evolutionists support their theory of evolution. Paleontologists are supposed to study many fossils and date back to when they became fossils. There have been many paleontologists that suggest that many organisms have been dated back millions of years. <ref>[https://www.britannica.com/science/paleontology/ Paleontology] ''Encyclopedia Britannica''.
