Coal and petroleum.

Explanation:

Coal and petroleum are the two examples that can be converted into fossil fuel after being buried under pressure for a long period of time. Both coal and petroleum formed underground with the presence of very high temperature and pressure. Coal is formed when the plant material is placed under high temperature and pressure for thousand of years while on the other hand, petroleum formed when dead bodies of animals are present underground for a very long time with a suitable pressure and temperature turn into petroleum.

never [62]

Answer:

The cell cycle ensures that we get more white blood cells that flow through our bloodstream to fight viruses, bacteria, and other foreign invaders that threaten our health.

The cell cycle also keeps our cells fresh. In order for our bodies to grow and develop, they must produce new cells—and allow for the death of old cells. Cell division is also an essential component of injury repair. If our cells couldn’t divide and create new cells, our bodies could never produce new skin cells to heal road rash, or grow a fingernail back.

Explanation:

hope this helps!
