Fossil fuels formed over long periods of time after particles in water settled to the sea floor and formed marine mud. What kinds of particles needed to be present in the marine mud in order for fossil fuels to form? (5.7A)

• Mostly sand and a few small bits of wood

• Mostly decaying organisms

• Mostly lava and a few sedimentary rocks

• Mostly metal minerals
