Detailed explanation-1: -Tetrapod footprints, worm trails and the burrows made by clams and arthropods are all trace fossils.
Detailed explanation-2: -A trace fossil is a result of animal activity. For example, a dinosaur footprint or an arthropod burrow would be an example of a trace fossil.
Detailed explanation-3: -The four types of trace fossils are tracks and trails (footprints), burrows and bores (worm holes), gastroliths (stomach stones), and coprolites (fossilized feces).
Detailed explanation-4: -Dinosaur footprints provide the best examples of movement trace fossils and provide paleontologists with the same kinds of clues that human footprints do.
Detailed explanation-5: -A trace is a record of biological activity in nature. Some examples of traces include footprints, paw prints, or hoof prints; burrows made by rabbits or snakes; holes left in the ground by plant roots; and feeding marks. We can classify traces according to the time that they were formed.
