Factors Influencing Fossilization: The Journey to Becoming a Fossil

The video explains how scientists use the fossil record to understand species evolution, despite its incompleteness. It discusses the low likelihood of organisms becoming fossils and the factors that affect fossilization, such as quick burial and structural hardness. The process involves mineral infusion over time, preserving the organism's shape. The video concludes with a review and quiz questions to reinforce learning.
