Both petroleum and coal are made up of complex carbon-based molecules, and both originated with living creatures of some kind. B

oth are vital sources of energy for the modern world and both were formed by geologic processes over millions of years. However, petroleum was mainly formed from the remains of ocean-dwelling microorganisms. Coal, on the other hand, originated from decayed vegetation in ancient swamps and bogs. In any case, it took millions of years for both coal and oil to be produced. This is the case because it took that much time for overlying sediments to produce the unimaginable heat and pressure that would one day allow us to harvest these energy resources.

Why should you use sources when writing a composition
Rasek [7]

Whenever you use other writers' ideas, however, you must acknowledge your sources. Doing so allows you to distinguish between your ideas and those of others; it directs your readers to relevant sources; and it allows you to give credit where credit is due.  It is important to properly reference and cite your sources to avoid plagiarism and to give credit for original ideas.

Putting source material in your own words shows readers that you have a true understanding of that material. Also, to restate in your own words the full meaning of a phrase or passage helps readers understand difficult, complex, jargon-riddled or ambiguous passages.

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

"Where Is Here?" takes place:

b. on a chilly, damp evening at sunset

Explanation:

"Where Is Here" is short story by author Joyce Carol Oates. The answer to this question concerning the setting can be found at the beginning of the story, in the first two paragraphs. Take a look at the evidence below:

<em>[...]  when, one November  evening at dusk, the doorbell rang</em>

<em>So, in the chill, damp, deepening dusk, the stranger wandered around the property</em>

Thus, we can safely say the story takes place b. on a chilly, damp evening at sunset.

Joyce Carol Oates in an awarded American writer born in 1938.
