You and a friend are out hiking a mountain trail on a beautiful spring day. Your friend's hiking stick hits the side of a rock. The rock splits open to reveal the fossil of a fish. Use what you learned in the lesson, about sedimentary rock, to explain the process that caused a fish from a lake or an ocean to end up as a fossil inside the rock you found on the mountain.
