Fossil Fuel Formation

Oil and Gas Formation What were the three ways fossil fuels are found that they mentioned in the video? (hint: two were types of surveys) What are fossil fuels? Renewable resources made by nature from remains of plants and animals. Non-renewable resources made by nature from remains of plants and animals. resources that a made in refineries from plants and animals. alternative resources made by nature from remains of organisms. Another word for oil is petroleum.Oil can be used to produce gasolineand jet fuel. It can also be burned to produce electricityto power our homes and businesses.The fossil fuel that is a hard rock is coal. Match each word to the description given. Burning The process that releases the energy in fossil fuels Sedimentary rock The layers of rock in which fossil fuels sometimes form Remains of plants and animals The source of energy for fossil fuels Pressure Provided by the layers of rock above What are fossil fuels made up of? plants and dinosaurs bones dinosaurs and trees plants and animals matter rocks and plants Fossil Fuels: StudyJams!

Using the information from the StudyJam slideshow answer the following question.What are three ways fossil fuels are used by people. wash our clothes, ride our bike, and make electricity. eat your food, dry your clothes, and complete your homework, heat homes and businesses, make gasoline, and generate electricity. Fossil fuels formed over long periods of time after particles in water settled to the sea floor and formed marine mud. What kinds of particles are needed to be present in the marine mud in order for fossil fuels to form? Mostly sand and a few small bits of wood Mostly decaying organisms Mostly lava and a few sedimentary rocks Mostly metal minerals Match the processes in the formation of Oil and Natural Gas to the correct number to show the steps in order in the development of fossil fuel formation. Pockets of oil and gas deposits develop beneath Earth's surface 4 The remains of living organisms were covered by layers of sand and silt 2 Heat and pressure changed the remains 3 Tiny plants and animals died millions of years ago 1 Look at the diagram above. Using the information, and your knowledge, fill in the missing words in the paragraph below. A word bank is shown to help you.bury fossil fuels millions ocean pressure heat sediment energy Millionsof years ago, as living things died, they sank to the bottom of the ocean.Pieces of rock, or sediment,would then fall to the bottom and bury the organisms. Over time, this added pressure .The layers would build up, and then heatfrom within the Earth would cause the materials to change. Eventually, fossil fuels formed. Today, we use this nonrenewable resource to meet our energyneeds. What is the main difference between the formation of coal in comparison to the formation of oil and natural gas? oil and natural gas took millions of years to form and coal forms fast. oil and natural gas are non-renewable and coal is renewable coal is made from animals only and oil and natural gas are made from plants coal is made from plants only and oil and natural gas are made from aquatic plants and animals. Where did the energy in fossil fuels originate (come from)? from the Earth from the sky from the sun from the fuels
