it is true do y'all learn this I health or what?
Fossils can be found in the Earth's crust.
The crust is the thinnest layer of the Earth. The fossils are most probably be found in this layer because it is the outermost layer. Also, the deeper the layer of the Earth, the higher the temperature that it has, and it probably cannot preserve the fossil.
The simplest answer would be to look at a punnet square. it gives you the random chance that a trait gets passed on to offspring. it's made off probability of dominant and recessive genes. But it's random in the end.
