Solution

The correct option is A

True


When plants dies, they get settled to the muddy bottom. Later, as other plants die, layers of mud and plant material gets built up. Over millions of years, the accumulated layers of these dead plants create very high temperature and pressure underneath Earth and hence get converted to coal. This slow conversion of plants into coal is called carbonization.
