Final answer:

Wood is not considered a fossil fuel as it has not undergone the same geological processes as true fossil fuels.


Explanation:

Wood is an example of a fossil fuel; this statement is false. Fossil fuels like coal, oil (petroleum), and natural gas are formed from ancient organisms, not wood. Wood, although organic matter, is not considered a fossil fuel as it has not undergone the same geological processes as true fossil fuels.
