Which of the following would a scientists studying fossils be most likely examine. A. A skull fragment. B. A piece of pottery. C. A cave painting. D. A tool made of bone

1 answer

A scientist studying fossils would be most likely to examine A. A skull fragment. Fossils typically refer to the preserved remains or traces of ancient organisms, and a skull fragment would fall under this category. The other options—pottery, cave paintings, and tools—are more related to archaeology and human artifacts rather than fossils.
