All fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) are trapped underground. That's where thay were formed, millions of years ago.
The fossil fuel found trapped underground above oil layers is natural gas, which can be found in porous rock formations. Natural gas is often found alongside oil deposits and can be extracted using similar techniques.
Coal is a type of fossil fuel that is mined from underground. It is formed from the remains of plants that lived millions of years ago and is a significant source of energy worldwide.
Oil is called a fossil fuel because it was formed from the remains of ancient organisms like plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. These organisms decayed and were trapped underground, eventually transforming into oil under high pressure and heat. There are no actual fossils in oil, but the term "fossil fuel" refers to its origin from organic matter.
Fossil fuels are formed on Earth, not on Sun.
The burning of fossil fuels releases carbon that has been stored underground into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. This process is known as the combustion of fossil fuels.

They are generally found underground
Natural gas is a fossil fuel consisting largely of methane (CH4).

Oil or natural gas
Oil is called a fossil fuel because it was formed from the remains of ancient organisms like plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. These organisms decayed and were trapped underground, eventually transforming into oil under high pressure and heat. There are no actual fossils in oil, but the term "fossil fuel" refers to its origin from organic matter.
No, it takes thousands to many millions of years of burial underground for organic material to transform into a fossil fuel form. You can use some crops (e.g. oil seeds) to replace some fossil fuel, but they are not fossil fuel.
Fossil fuels are formed on Earth, not on Sun.
No, the fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) have been underground for hundreds of millions of years. The only gas that is a fossil fuel, natural gas, is mostly methane (CH4).

Oil is commonly referred to as liquid petroleum or crude oil. It is a fossil fuel formed from ancient organic matter trapped deep underground. Oil is a vital energy resource used for transportation, heating, and electricity generation.
