Paleontology: Difference between revisions

How Paleontologists incorporate their knowledge is from biology, geology, archeology and computer science. Those four subjects help them understand the processes of how the world came to be. Paleontology is not just the study of fossils though, Paleontologists can also study the human body, vertebrate and invertebrate fossils. Paleontology is much more than just the study of fossils. They study a lot of interesting subjects and they work hard to find clues about the history of our world. <ref> [http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/paleo/paleowhat.html/ Paleontology] ''UCMP''. Web. Unknown Author. December 2018.</ref>Paleontology is the study of 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''.
