Crude oil comes from these remains but it takes a very long time for them to form.
Oil
Coal
A resource formed mainly from the remains of microscopic-sized marine organisms buried beneath the ground petroleum. The kind of energy produced when billions of atomic nuclei from uranium are split apart in a fission reaction is nuclear.
dead organisms
yes
Both coal and oil are assumed to have formed from the remains of organisms that lived long ago. Most natural gas is also assumed to have formed by the decomposition of these materials.

Fossils are formed from the buried remains of marine organisms. These organisms are under a tremendous amount of pressure and, over time, they fossilize.
oil
No, it is formed when forests die and are covered with layers of rock which compress it and over time turns it into coal. Buried remains of marine organisms formed oil, following mass extinctions,where the oceans have stagnated.

scientists think that petroleum formed from the remains of plankton and other microscopic protists, plants, and animals living in shallow seas millions of years ago. The remains of these organisms settled on the ocean floor and were covered by sediments. Over millions of years, the pressure and heat produced by the sediments coverted the remains of these organisms into a syrupy liquid.
