2.Petroleum fuels are considered nonrenewable resources because they are formed from _______water___ compressed between layers of rock.

Option b

Explanation:

  • There is a large number of consequences due to the burning of fossils . However pollution of the sea water is not a consequence since coal is terrestrial mineral and it is not obtained from digging the ocean floors.
  • Petroleum is obtained by compressing the fossils and takes millions of years to form fossils hence it is an example of non renewable natural resources unlike air or water.
