Organism growth, burial, compaction contains only processes that must occur in order for fossil fuels to form
Answer: Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
- Fossil Fuels are used to produce energy in tremendous amounts. This nonrenewable source cannot be produced easily. It takes really a long time to form these fossils.
- The dead organisms either plants or animals will start decomposing in a few days. This will make the decaying organisms to do a vertical growth. That is the body will to decay holding up carbons in the matter.
- The burial is that the remains of the organisms after the decaying process which also has an enormous amount of carbon.
- As time moves, that matter covered under the sand will start to become a fossil in the absence of oxygen, and heat and pressure. The process of heat and pressure over time making sediments over the mater is ''Compaction''.
