It depends what fossil fuel you are talking about.
Coal is formed from plant fossils living on land or swamps, oil is made from the remains of tiny organisms living in the seas.
It is possible to find many fossils in coal but because of commercial pressures very few have been preserved for study, but some plants or parts of trees are quite common.
Oil is different because it is a liquid which has been forced out from its source rock into a sandstone where it can gather as a reservoir.
