Explanation:

Fossil is fragile as it contain the remains of dead of plants and animals on it. Fossil can be collected from sedimentary rocks instead of metamorphic rocks because sedimentary rocks contain strata or layers of fossils.

The method of collecting fossils entails how the fossil is collected and it should be wrapped in news paper, aluminum foil or plaster of Paris so as to preserve the imprints of the remains of dead plants and animals.

The collected fossils should be labelled properly and well documented to avoid missed up or loss of some certain information using pen or paints.

Magnifying glass can be used to view it.

the nitrogen cycle provides nitrogen to the ecosystem from the atmosphere, ground and oceans. nitrogen is an important component of complex molecules such as amino acids and nucleotides, which lead to the creation of proteins and dna, the building blocks of all life. plants absorb nitrogen in the form of ammonium, nitrate ion and, on rare occasions, as amino acids. animals receive nitrogen necessary for biological processes from feeding on living or dead organic matter.
