Fossils

[gneissisnice]

Phew, I got through trilobites today. Took a surprisingly long time, considering that there are only 4. By the way, anyone happen to know the feeding habit of phacops? I couldnt really find anything so i put filter feeder.

i looked i cant find anything either. Filter feeder seems reasonable, i mean its no t-rex....

[Deeisenberg]

It is not known the mode of feeding, however filter feeding has been proposed.

I'm rlly in trouble 4 this event because i didn't take earth science and my brilliant team decided not 2 finalize ne1's event until right b4 the break so now i have a ton of research 2 do 4 a topic i rlly know nothing about i'm glad 2 do it 4 my team and everything, it just scares me cuz I have less than a month and i see that some of u have been working on this since the summer! tips ne1? please?

hey, i'm in the same circumstances, i figure out b4 the break that i have to do fossils because no one is willing to do it! but i think that fossils can be really fun and i can know more about another field of science.
anyway, i'm starting to build my binder and have some questions: where do you find the information ? like i'm doing forams right now, where can i find stuff about nummulites? the internet doesn't offer much though.
are you guys using the audobon book?
Thanks so much.

Audubon book
Smithsonian book
Wikipedia

You should be able to find at least a few fossils guides at your library
