Answer

Brief Explanations:

Fossils in sedimentary rocks are often formed from the remains of organisms that get buried in sediments. A fish skeleton and a clam - shell are remains of organisms that can be buried in sediments over time and form fossils in sedimentary rocks. A frozen animal is not a fossil formed by sediments as it is preserved in ice, petrified wood is formed through a different process of mineral - replacement usually in other rock - forming processes, and a preserved insect is often in amber (not formed by sedimentary processes in the traditional fossil - in - sedimentary - rock sense).

Answer:

A. a fossil of a fish skeleton and a cast of a clamshell
