Mary Anning and her brother Joseph used to (3) B collect fossils (ancient plants and animals (4) A which have turned to stone), Joseph found the head of a large 'crocodile' on the beach at Lyme, and a year later Mary found the rest of the skeleton. It turned out to be a dolphin-like reptile called an Ichthyosaurus. She also found many other (5) C valuable fossils.
