Answer:

Energy can change form, but the total amount of energy stays the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Energy transformation diagrams shows the different forms of energy which are converted into different forms.

As we know by an example of potential energy to kinetic energy conservation when a block is compressed against the spring then initially total energy is in the form of elastic potential energy of the spring.

When block is released then total potential energy of the block is converted into the kinetic energy of the block.

So here we know that in energy transfer diagram shows the transformation of energy while total energy will always remains conserved.

so here correct answer would be

Energy can change form, but the total amount of energy stays the same.
