Answer: Plankton

Explanation:

The fuels such as oils and natural gas are fossil fuels that is burnt to obtain energy. Old and dead organic matter( plankton, biomass, plants and animals) gets buried deep inside the ocean and compression takes takes place for over many years.

This process helps in the formation of the fossil fuels such as oils and natural gas. Its extraction takes place by squeezing of plankton.

Over time, sand, sediment and rock buried the organic matter and it eventually formed large quantities of fuels.

Why does acid rain adamage mountain lebrty
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

When sulfurous, sulfuric, and nitric acids in polluted air and rain react with the calcite in marble and limestone, the calcite dissolves. In exposed areas of buildings and statues, we see roughened surfaces, removal of material, and loss of carved details. Stone surface material may be lost all over or only in spots that are more reactive.

Explanation:

You might expect that sheltered areas of stone buildings and monuments would not be affected by acid precipitation. However, sheltered areas on limestone and marble buildings and monuments show blackened crusts that have peeled off in some places, revealing crumbling stone beneath. This black crust is primarily composed of gypsum, a mineral that forms from the reaction between calcite, water, and sulfuric acid. Gypsum is soluble in water; although it can form anywhere on carbonate stone surfaces that are exposed to sulfur dioxide gas (SO2), it is usually washed away. It remains only on protected surfaces that are not directly washed by the rain.
