We are asked to identify what type of rock would be formed in a plant-rich swamp. We all know that plant dies and the remain leaves in the soil called peat. Temperature, pressure and heat causes the remains to submerged under the soil bed layer and converts it into a waxy substance called kerogen. Kerogen then mixes with the rock under the soil bed layer to create what is called an oil shale. Oil shale is somehow similar to a coal. Both creates an energy when ignited. Therefore the correct answer to the question being asked is COAL or Oil Shale.

A Carbon can only form 4 bonds and a Hydrogen can only form 1 bond.
Answer:
The correct answer is - C: Energy is neither created nor destroyed, but continually transformed into new forms of energy.
Explanation:
Conservation of energy is the first law of thermodynamics that says that energy is neither generated nor destroyed, can only be transformed from one form to another form continuously. That means no matter what the condition the amount of energy will remain the same, only form will be changed.
For instance, if an electric current will pass through a circuit of a light bulb the electrical energy present in the circuit will transfer into heat and light energy, The amount will remain constant but the one form change to another.
