^This is an original remain fossil because the spider-like creature was trapped in the sap and then the sap became fossilized (amber), thus preserving the insides of the spider-like creature.
This is a replaced remains fossil because rock forming minerals attach to the hard part of the skeleton hardening them and then letting the soft parts decay. As you can tell here, the rock forming minerals attached to the outer layer of the fish.
