The body of a jellyfish can be excluded due to the absence of fossil records. Jellyfish have soft bodies that do not typically fossilize well, making their fossil records very scarce or nonexistent. In contrast, the shells of crabs and snails, as well as a dinosaur's backbone, are more likely to leave fossil evidence.

The answer is **the body of a jellyfish**. Jellyfish are made of soft tissue that does not fossilize well, leading to a lack of fossil records.
