INTRODUCTION  The preserved remains or traces of ancient animals and plants which have lived in the past are known as Fossils. They help us in providing insight into the history of life on Earth, which tells us about the evolution of species, the environment they lived in and the conditions which shaped our planet. In this blog post,we will explore a topic which holds the history of animals and plants that are FOSSILS along with their formation,types,importance and their hunting or collection. WHAT ARE FOSSILS? As stated above, the remains of ancient plants and animals which have got preserved in the Earth over a period of time are known as Fossils. They can take many different forms,however three of the important forms are as follows: ●Body Fossils:  The preserved remains of an organism's body such as bones,shells or leaves are known as Body Fossils. ●Track Fossils :  The impressions or tracks which are left behind by the movement or activity of a...

INTRODUCTION  The branch of chemistry which deals with the study of carbon-containing compounds is known as organic chemistry. These compounds can be found in all living organisms and are considered as building blocks of life. It is a very vast and diverse field which encompasses the study of the structure,properties and reactions of the organic compounds. Carbon is an unique element and known to be an ideal element for forming the complex molecules necessary for life. It is considered ideal because of its ability to form long chains and complex rings, as well as bond with other elements like hydrogen,oxygen,nitrogen and sulfur.  The compounds of carbon forms the basis of organic chemistry. These field of organic chemistry is broad which includes the following subfields: •Natural products Chemistry:   It is the study of organic compounds which are found in nature such as sugars,alkaloids and amino acids. •Synthetic Organic Chemistry :  It...

INTRODUCTION  Since the ancient times,diamonds are considered as the symbol of luxury and elegance, but have you ever realized what makes them so special and magnificent? They are even considered as the marvel of chemistry because of their unique structure and exceptional hardness.
