How might a dependence on fossil fuels lead to international security risks?

Dependence on fossil fuels can create security risks when demand grows while supplies are limited.

Choice b does not follow necessarily, and choice c incorrectly suggests that increased dependence would lower oil costs, so “all of the above” is not correct.
