Answer:

C. a cow skeleton in the dessert.

Step-by-step explanation:

i had this question and this is how i thought it through. fossils are usually referred to as extinct animal remains. a cow is not a extinct animal and it doesn't live in the dessert so that would make it a false answer. another reason would be that the rest of the answers make sense. for answer a. it is a trace fossil, b. is a preserved fossil, d. is a petrified fossil. so that leaves c.

hope that helps :)
