1)There are 3 type of tectonic setting extensional, compressional and strike slip setting which mould the type of petroleum or hydrocarbons deposition

Strike slip regime-Both extensional and compressional regime exist so positive flower structure formed in compressional regime and negative flower structure in extensional regime for example cambay rift zone in India and godavari graben in India

Compressional regime Due to thrusting hydrocarbons deposition as hinge part of anticline for an example zagros moutain of Iran

Extensional regime forms normal listric fault where roll over anticline contains petroleum

2)The percentage of oil reserves of usa world wide approximately 15%

3)America petroleum diet per day approximately 20.5millon barrel per day,

Just multiply 365 for annual requirements

4)plastics is sources of petrochemicals products, plastics is usually prepared from oil composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

5)Xenoestrogen-

Xeno-foregein estrogen

It imitates estrogen

Sources-plastic,pesticide, chemical or water systems

Affect-it affect reproductive systems of both males and females
