(P. 39) Why are some regions rich in Fossil Fuels? (P. 39) Interpret the map on the right. Why are some regions rich in Fossil Fuels? (P. 39) Different countries have different amounts of fossil fuels, and some have none. This indicates that Fossil fuels are unevenly distributed.  NEW TERMS IMPERMEABLE Does not allow fluid to pass through. PERMEABLE Allows fluid to pass through  NEW TERMS PLANKTON The word “plankton” comes from the Greek for “drifter” or “wanderer.” An organism is considered plankton if it is carried by tides and currents and cannot swim well enough to move against these forces. Investigation: Between a Rock and a Hard Place (P. 41) Fossil Fuels Formation (P.42)  Striking Oil P. 42 Interpret the Map to the left. Using your knowledge, explain why some states have petroleum basins, while others don’t. (Predict)  Striking Oil P. 42 Interpret the Map to the left. The US map shows that some states are rich in petroleum, while others are not. This indicates that Fossil Fuels are unevenly distributed.  Striking Oil P. 42 Using your knowledge, explain why some states have petroleum basins, while others don’t. (Predict) Probably some or all conditions for oil formation were not met, which means it can’t form. Another reason might be is that oil only formed recently and wasn’t trapped underground long enough. EXTRA PRACTICE: Interpret the Graph U.S.A Crude Oil Reserve EXTRA PRACTICE: Interpret the Graph On January 3rd 2020, the USA had around 640 Million barrels of crude oil. This amount remains constant, until 3rd of July where it increases to 655 Million barrels. Then as time increases, Crude Oil reserve in the USA decreases from 655 Million Barrels to around 470 Million barrels of oil by July 1st 2022. This indicates that, U.S.A are highly dependent on oil, which will eventually be fully used. Location of Fossil Fuels Location of Fossil Fuels (P. 43)
