Answer:

Heat and pressure build up on top of decaying matter was necessary for the formation of all fossil fuels.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are different energy sources in the form of hydrocarbons, which come from older geological periods, and which can be found on or below the ground in the litho and pedosphere. According to the biogenic theory, which prevails today, the fossil fuels are the remains of ancient animals and plants that have been buried in the earth and then decomposed under high pressure and heat to their constituents (mainly carbon and carbon compounds).

The fossil fuels mainly comprise natural gas, petroleum and coal. Natural gas consists mainly of the gas methane and has a high content of the element hydrogen compared to the element carbon. Methane is found in natural gas fields together with crude oil or bound as methane clathrate. Petroleum (also called crude oil) is found in liquid form and contains a larger amount of the elemental carbon, while the non-volatile rock species also called carbon (not to be confused with the elemental carbon) contains a very large amount of the elemental carbon. Anthracite consists almost of pure carbon. All of these fuels are very important for trade. There are also other fossil fuels that are largely untapped, such as oil shale, various sedimentary rocks containing hydrocarbons.

In what way do the nervous and endocrine systems differ in a way
Simora [160]

The nervous system communicates through electrical impulses and the communication is very fast. It works in a relay fashion, from point to point comparable to the way the old telephones systems used to work.

The endocrine system communicates by chemical signals via the bloodstream. Hormones are secreted into the blood and extra cellular fluids, then transported to target cells, which must bear a receptor to be able to bind to a specific hormone, and respond. 

Hormones are chemical messengers secreted into blood or extracellular fluid that affect the function of other cells.

Endocrine communication is not quite as fast as the nervous system communication

Almost all animals share the following characteristics except
Aleks [24]

The correct answer is A.

Animal cells do not have a  cell wall.

A cell wall is the rigid, outermost covering of plant cells and is made up of cellulose.  It is absent in animal cells. The cell wall is visible under a light microscope.

Animal cells are instead covered by a cell membrane. It is made up of lipids, proteins, and small amounts carbohydrates. It is a thin and delicate structure  that can only be seen using an electron microscope.
