Answer 1

Fossil fuels are inexpensive and readily available with existing equipment.

Answer 2

Answer: B)Fossil fuels are inexpensive and readily available with existing equipment.

Explanation:

The fossil fuels are the fuels that are produced inside the heap of the earth crust. These are produced as a result of the geological and biological processes occurring under the surface of earth. These includes the hydrocarbons such as coal, crude oil, natural gas which are formed from the dead remains of the plants and animals.

These fuels are the non-renewable source of energy and these produce large amount of carbon dioxide on burning, this can lead to global warming.

The main advantage associated with these fuels is that they are inexpensive because of the appreciable volume of availability in some regions of the world.
