Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

The petroleum and natural gas are two of the non-renewable resources that are formed from the burial of plants and animals about millions of years back. These are comprised of hydrocarbons that are very limited in amount and takes a long time to form. These are the fossil fuels on which the majority of the countries are directly dependent.

These are formed when the fossils were deposited in a shallow marine type of environment, detaching from the atmospheric environment.

For example, the deposition of plants and animals in the seas long time back gives rise to the formation of fossil fuel such as petroleum and natural gas.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

In the drier Great Plains states to the west, farmers are more likely to _____.
Sonja [21]

The correct answer is - grow wheat or oats.

The Great Plains region is a semi arid region. That means that it has relatively low amount of precipitation. Also, the precipitation occurs only in certain parts of the year, and there's relatively long droughts in between. This has led to the Great Plains region to naturally be a grassland. The grasses have contributed with their quick decomposition for a very fertile soil with deep top humus layer. In order to use the soil, the climate conditions, as well as to retain the soil's high productivity, the farmers have mainly orientated towards the farming of crops like the wheat and the oats. They do not require a lot of water, have characteristics that make them suitable for the climate, and their roots and leftovers from the steams are decomposing very quickly which retains the soil's fertility.
