All of them because they are all hydrocarbons formed from decayed organic matter. These fuels contain carbon and oxygen that were separated by photosynthesis, using carbon dioxide as the raw material in a process which takes its energy from the Sun.

When fossil fuels are burnt, the heat energy comes from the recombination of carbon and oxygen atoms to produce carbon dioxide. Additional energy comes from the recombination of hydrogen and oxygen.
