Fossilization is a process that requires certain conditions so that it can take place. The climate is very important, a hot and wet place is not a place where there's a chance of finding fossils, while the places with permafrost are a much better candidate because the bacteria can not dissolve the organisms. The pressure also can play a vital role. A place that manages to keep the organisms safe from outside influence, like the tar pits, are excellent preservers. Also the structure of the organisms play a key role, a boneless organism is very hard to preserve and be fossilized, while an organism with bone structure has a bigger chance of being preserved.

.How long does it take hair to grow 8 inches?
Katarina [22]

Its all depends on were you're starting. If you're starting from a bob cut or a pixie your hair might take longer than others to grow.

It also depends on your diet. If what you eat is balanced with fruit, vegetables, protein and calcium, that should help your hair grow. Iron and vitamin D also helps too.
