What are the 3 ingredients of fire?

For fire you need three main ingredients. First you need a fuel, this fuel can be anything that burns like wood for example. Second you need oxygen, without oxygen a fire cannot burn. Finally you need heat, even though fires give off heat you still need it to start a fire. If you remove any one of these three ingredients then the fire will die.
