Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. For the order of fossil - formation: First, an organism dies (R). Then it is buried (T). Over time, sediment accumulates (Q), and compaction and cementation occur (S).
  2. A trace fossil is evidence of an organism's activity. Fossilized tracks, coprolites (fossilized feces), and fossilized burrows are trace fossils. Petrified wood is a fossil formed by permineralization, not a trace fossil.
  3. Fragile and soft - bodied organisms like the dragonfly can be preserved as carbonaceous films when the organic material is compressed and leaves a thin carbon - rich layer.

Answer:

  1. f. R, T, Q, S
  2. C. petrified wood
  3. J. carbonaceous films
