• (A) and (B) are independent of each other.

Answer 1

(B) is the reason for (A).

Explanation:

Liquid petroleum in its natural underground state is referred described as “crude oil” since the word “crude” literally means raw, impure, or unprocessed. Statement (B) explains this name choice clearly, stating that it cannot be used in its original state and must be refined industrially to create useful products.
