inaccurate
accurate - box A (general information)
accurate - box B (pros)
accurate - box c (cons)
Place the responses in the correct order
renewable because fossil fuels will not run out
deposits stay in the same place forever
infrastructure for using fossil fuels already exists
sustainable because using fossil fuels does not harm the environment
many useful products, including most plastics, are made from fossil fuels
formed when remains of dead organic matter are subjected to heat and pressure for a very long time
release carbon-containing greenhouse gases when burned
nonrenewable because there is a limited supply that does not regenerate quickly
formed by weathering, erosion, and deposition
deposits can be moved via plate tectonics
