Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The fossil record provides evidence of when and how life began on the planet, what types of organisms existed and how long they persisted, how they lived, died, and evolved, and what the climate was and how it changed.
Detailed explanation-2: -There need to be special conditions to preserve organisms like jellyfish. Sometimes these organisms fall to the muddy sea bottom in quiet water and are buried rapidly by more mud. For that reason, the fossil record of soft-bodied organisms is much less well known than the record of hard-bodied organisms.
