Fossil fuels are formed over millions of
years from decomposing plants and
animals.

However, if the plant or animal remains
get trapped under sediment or rock and
decay while being trapped, then they can
be uncovered millions of years later and
are packed with stored energy.

Fossil fuels are the product of plant and
animal decay that has been trapped and
stored over time.
Question A
Stem: What are fossil fuels?
Answer Choices:
A. Food that comes from animals
B. Fossils that were once gasoline
C. Decomposed plants and animals that have been stored under sediments
D. Plants and animals that erode in air and water

Fossil fuels are packed with energy, but
where did they get their energy from to
begin with? The answer is where almost
all energy on Earth can be traced back to:
the sun.

Animals get their energy from eating food.
This food could be plants or other animals
(which, in turn, get their energy from
plants).
Image

af_function.jpg
Plants get their energy from the sun.
Plants take in water and carbon dioxide.
Sunlight then helps form sugar (or food)
and oxygen.
Image
Fossil fuel is energy, and therefore can be
traced ultimately back to the sun.

Question B
Stem: How does photosynthesis connect to fossil fuels?
Answer Choices:
A. Fossil fuels use photosynthesis to make sunlight.
B. Fossil fuels can be traced back to plants, which get their energy through
photosynthesis
C. Sunlight is used to make food in both photosynthesis and fossil fuels.
D. Both are dependent on carbon dioxide and water.

Write: Fossil Fuels are nonrenewable.
They are used up faster than they can be
replaced.

Fossil fuels are nonrenewable resources
because they are used up much faster
than they can be replaced.

Fossil fuels are popular to use for a few
reasons: they give us a lot of energy
easily, they are relatively affordable and
they are easy to transport.

However, there are some serious
drawbacks to using fossil fuels: they are
not sustainable and extracting them can
damage the land.
Image
Also, they release carbon dioxide into the

Question D
Stem: Which statement below is an indirect consequence of using fossil fuels instead of
other energy resources?
Answer Choices:
A. Plants and animals may go extinct if they cannot survive in warmer
temperatures
B. Less space is available for roads, houses and other buildings
C. There is more oxygen in the atmosphere

Fossil fuels come from decomposed
plants and animals that are trapped under
sand or rock.
Image

Plants and animals from millions of years
ago got trapped under sand.
Image
They broke apart or decomposed, but
since they were trapped, the decomposed
material stayed together.

Fossil fuels come from ancient plants and
animals. They mostly come from plants
that were once living in shallow water.

The plants got their energy originally from
photosynthesis. The sun’s light energy
creates food.

Animals can eat this food and then they
will have energy. When plants and
animals die, their energy is put back into
the earth.

However, if dead plants and animals’
bodies get trapped under rocks, this
energy is stored and after many years it
becomes fossil fuel.

because they have stored all their energy.

means humans use up the fossil fuels
faster than they can be replaced.

If we keep using fossil fuels, we will
eventually run out of them, because it
