Solution

The correct option is B chemical energy
You'd burn it, just like you might burn coal or oil or natural gas. The stored energy in the wood is chemical energy, meaning that it can be released by a chemical reaction (burning). It's closely related to those fossil fuel energies, because the chemical energy was formed by photosynthesis, using energy from sunlight as the input.
