This statement is true. With the right set of conditions, dead organisms such as plants and animals can become fossils when buried in sediment. This process is usually caused by the intense pressure and heat that the organism is subjected to, while buried deep underground. This leads to various physical and chemical processes to take place, and preserve the organism as a fossil.
