Preparation Questions | Invertebrate Paleontology at Wooster
http://paleontology.voices.wooster.edu/preparation-questions
Invertebrate Paleontology at Wooster. Before each class lecture I will post here a list of preparation questions. These questions are designed to prepare you for each lecture. If we have a pop quiz on the listed day, it will include some or all of these questions AND at least one surprise question from previous lectures to encourage review. I recommend you thus have answers for them at least in your head! 1 What do I mean when I say a trace fossil is preserved as a concave epirelief. 2 What is bioerosion.
