Now fossil fuels look like coal (black, dusty rock), oil (black sticky liquid) and natural gas (colorless gas).
When fossil fuels were alive they were a variety of vegetation, plants, trees and animals. Some of the animals would have been dinosaurs. When they all died they were gradually covered with earth and rock and eventually experienced huge pressure and high temperature. This began hundreds of millions of years ago to produce the fossil fuels of today. your mum!
I found the two answers in a dictonary.
1. fossil fuel noun Energy .
any combustible organic material, as oil, coal, or natural gas, derived from the remains of former life.
2. fossil fuel
A hydrocarbon deposit, such as petroleum, coal, or natural gas, derived from the accumulated remains of ancient plants and animals and used as fuel. carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases generated by burning fossil fuels are considered to be one of the principal causes of global warming.
I know the question is how do I describe it, but I couldn't think of anything and didn't want to leave this blank.
More area covered with landfill, less fossil fuels available for our children, more smog in the air.
It is a good idea to cutback of fossil fuels not only because it is totally terrible for the environment but sooner or later it will be gone. Look at the prices of gas they are up the roof! Why, because of the low amount of gas.
to get fossil fuels we have to do many things. Fossil fuel is created by animals and plants that died millions of years ago that got crushed in the earth. To get fossil fuels we have to look for a place that have dead things in the ground. We, then, have to put together the things to get to it. We send down machines to get it out. Having fossil fuels is good and bad. It is good because it is easy to transport from places to places and it is cheap. The bad thing about it is that it creats alot of air pollution when burned and there is not a lot left. I hope this help you :)
Petroleum is recovered from the ground by drilling deeply into the ground. There are also many other Fossil Fuels, if you would like to look them up. They are all taken from the ground.
A geologist is studying layers of rock. He finds a fossil with an imprint of a shelled animal. According to the law of faunal and floral succession, what kind of fossil would he most likely find next, in the layer of rock above it? Look back to the Fossil Succession Chart for help.

Peat is the most common producer of coal. Tropical vegetation - Oil.

no its not you can look up other metals and fossil fuels that are though:]
when fossil fuels are burned carbon dioxide is produced. hope this helps if it doesnt look it upon the internet for example type it in another searchengine
The prehistoric animals that would become our fossil fuels lived during the Carboniferous age. Terapods four legged reptile-like creatures with backbones. Early amphibians also moved from the water to land. This age was also well known of its super sized insects.

Fossil fuels come from decayed plants and animals. Oil typically comes from dead marine life. Coal comes from decaying plants. So, before they are transformed into fuels (which can take millions of years), the decaying organic material is likely to be brown. Of course, before they die, the plants and animal look just like they do today.
They looked almost exactly the same. Dinosours may have been part of the mix too, but they were the same animals. -Jonhis
