Answer:


D\text{ : Coal}

Step-by-step explanation:

Fossil fuels are remains of dead organic materials (plants and animals) buried inside the earth's crust for a long number of years.

They are reliable energy sources

Coal is a form of fossil fuel, petroleum is a form of fossil fuel too. However, petroleum is drilled to bring it out of the earth while coal is mined

The correct answer choice here is thus coal
