Solution

The correct option is B False
Fossil fuels developed from dead (plant and animal) biomass that was converted into what they are today by being exposed to high pressure and heat in the absence of oxygen over the course of millions of years.

The main fossil fuels are coal, natural gas and crude oil.

Hence, it is a false statement.
