ANSWER:

Through natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition

Step-by-step explanation:

A fossil fuel is a fuel produced by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, comprising power arising in ancient photosynthesis. The life of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is usually millions of years and sometimes passes 650 million years.
