The correct option is D

Plants


The explanation for the correct option:

Option (D) Plants

  1. The plant is not the same as coal, petroleum, or lignite.
  2. The plant is not a fossil fuel.
  3. Other options are fuels so the plant is different from others.

The explanation for the incorrect options:

Option (A) Coal: It is a fossil fuel formed by the decay of plants and animals millions of years ago.
Option (B) Lignite: Lignite, often referred to as brown coal, is a soft, brown, combustible, sedimentary rock formed from naturally compressed peat.

Therefore, plants are different from the others. Hence, Option D is correct.
