GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Fossil fuels are made from decomposing plants and animals. These fuels are found in the Earth’s crust and contain carbon and hydrogen, which can be burned for energy. Coal, oil, and natural gas are examples of fossil fuels.

Detailed explanation-2: -We know that fossil fuels are formed from decayed plants and animals that have been converted to crude oil, coal, natural gas by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth’s crust over millions of years.

Detailed explanation-3: -Before the dinosaurs, many giant plants died in swamps. Over millions of years, the plants were buried under water and dirt. Heat and pressure turned the dead plants into coal. Coal is used primarily in the United States to generate electricity.

Detailed explanation-4: -Statement 2: Coal, petroleum and natural gas are formed as a result of decayed plants and animals being subjected to conditions of high temperature and pressure for a prolonged period of time. Q.
