    Answer : Option A

    Explanation :

    In the transformation of vegetative matter to coal the first product is Peat. As plants and trees died, their remains sank to the bottom of the swampy areas, making layers and layers of plant material and eventually forming a soggy, thick material called PEAT. The pressure from sedimentary rocks squeezed the water from the peat.
