Answer 1

D. peat

Step-by-step explanation:

Bogs are the areas that can considered as wetlands due to the presence of spongy, wet and peaty soil.

These bog areas can broadly be classified into three types:

1) typical bogs of cool regions:

Here bog mosses are abundant along with heaths and Sphagnum specie.

2) fens:

Here grasses, reeds, sedges and grass like plants are frequently found.

3) tropical tree bogs:

Here almost all area is covered with peat and the dead remains of trees.

So overall we can say that almost every bog land accumulates peat but the amount can vary from one type of bog to another.

what is peat?

The word peat refers to the deposition of dead organic plant materials and they can also be majorly sphagnum moss or some other types of mosses.
