Drag the correct vocabulary word to the correct location in the sentence below.  Not all words will be used.
Fossil fuels are ___________________  formed from the remains of ______________  that lived long ago.

Select the statement about fossil fuels that is true.

Drag each Fossil Fuel to the correct way each Fossil Fuel was formed.

Natural Gas
Oil
Coal

Mostly Plants (from a swamp)
Mostly Animals & some plants (aquatic)

Why is it important to conserve Fossil Fuels?

Because they are formed by polluting the Earth and people don't pollute anymore.

Because Fossil Fuels are only found under the ocean.

Because they take a very long time to form and also cause pollution.

Because they take a short time to form and also cause pollution.

Match the correct process with its result:

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Sediments compacting over time		Forms sedimentary rock through evaporation
Organic material decaying deep underground		Creates layers of sedimentary rock
Minerals crystallizing from water		Forms fossil fuels like coal

Match the condition to its outcome:

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
High pressure and temperature		Leads to fossil fuel formation
Organic matter buried in oceans		Creates sedimentary rock layers
Slow deposition of sediments		Causes fossil fuel transformation

Match the type of material to its source:

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Ancient sea organisms		Contributes to coal formation
Shells and minerals		Source of fossil fuels like oil
Plant remains		Forms sedimentary rocks like limestone
