Explanation:

petroleum was formed from the remains of ancient marine organisms, such as plants, algae, and bacteria. ... Over millions of years under high pressure and high temperature, the remains of these organisms transformed into what we know today as fossil fuels

A fossil fuel, petroleum is formed when large quantities of dead organisms, mostly zooplankton and algae, are buried underneath sedimentary rock and subjected to both intense heat and pressure.
