Detailed explanation-1: -Carbonization. Carbonized fossil remains (also called carbonizations) may result when organisms are rapidly buried, especially in low-oxygen conditions. Carbonized remains are thin, approximately two-dimensional films of carbon preserved on a flat surface of rock.

Detailed explanation-2: -In carbonization, a fossil forms when a dead organism is compressed over time and pressure drives off the organism’s liquids and gases.

Detailed explanation-3: -This type of fossil formation is called mineralization. mineralized fossil. pressure drives off the organism’s liquids and gases.

Detailed explanation-4: -Carbonization is when living tissue leave a carbon film in sediment and rock. Many plant fossils are preserved through carbonization. Soft parts of animals including skin and fur have also been preserved as fossils through the process of carbonization.

Detailed explanation-5: -Carbonization is a type of fossil preservation in which the organism is preserved as a residual, thin film of carbon instead of the original organic matter. Leaves, fish, and graptolites are commonly preserved in this way. Compression of the original organism results in thin layers of carbon.
