An energy source made of the remains of organisms that lived long ago, like coal or oil
Real World Example
Imagine you're cleaning out your closet and come across an old jacket you haven't worn in years, but it still keeps you warm when needed. Similarly, fossil fuels are like that old jacket; they are made from ancient remains of organisms and can still provide energy today. Just as that jacket was created years ago but continues to serve its purpose, fossil fuels were formed millions of years ago from plant and animal remains, yet they remain a crucial energy source for modern needs.
