Oil still plays an important role in the global economy despite the continued efforts to reduce its use and to find alternative green energy sources. In the early days, finding oil during a drill was considered somewhat of a nuisance as the intended treasures were normally water or salt. It wasn't until 1847 that the first commercial oil well was drilled in the Absheron Peninsula, Azerbaijan.1 The U.S. petroleum industry was born 12 years later, in 1859, with intentional drilling near Titusville, Pennsylvania. (Drilling in the United States began in the early 1800s, but they were drilling for brine so any oil discovery was accidental.)2

Water is also made up of the two nonmetals oxygen and hydrogen in which we found Oxygen the most abundant.
The Atlantic Ocean is the correct answer for this equation
Because of the tectonic plates shifting it causes different landforms. Hope this helps!
