hundreds of years ago remenants of plants and animals were buried into the Earth's surface and due to tremendous pressure from outside and the heat inside they were turned into fuels these fuels are knows as fossil fuels

these gases after burnt don't leave any waste solid substance behind . they burn quickly and are very easy to control hence fossil fuels are very convenient to use

hey mate!✌️
Fossil fuels is a fuel formed by natural processes such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.
any 2 fossil fuels are :-
(1) Coal: It is the primary fuel for the production of electricity and is responsible for about 40% of the electric power supply in the United States.
(2) Natural Gas: About 27% of U.S. energy is fueled by natural gas. It is commonly used to produce heat or electricity for buildings and industrial processes. Very little, about 2%, is used for transportation. Natural gas may also be used for fertilizer, paint, and plastic production.
(3) Oil: Oil is the primary source for the world's transportation. Most oil is pumped out of underground reservoirs but may also be found in shale and tar sands. The crude oil is then refined to create the fuel such as heating oil, gasoline, petroleum gas, pesticides, fertilizers, plastics, and more.
