Answer

B. The remains of organisms that lived millions of years ago

Step-by-step explanation

Fossil is a trace of plant or animal that lived long time ago, if the organism just died it is not immediately called a fossil, so C is incorrect. Fossil is remains from organisms not everything, therefore A is incorrect. Artifacts include tools, clothing, and decorations made by people, therefore D is incorrect. The correct answer is B.
