Answer: d. an energy transformation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy possessed by an object by virtue of its position.

Work is defined as the force leading to displacement of the point of application in the direction of the force.

Law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can only transformed from one form to another.

Energy transformation occurs when one form of energy is converted into another form. For example : A body in rest possess potential energy and when it moves potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.

A change from one form of energy into another is called conservation of energy. The answer is letter C. you cannot create something and destroy it. An example is eating food. You can see food as how as a physical being. However, when you eat the food, the digestive enzymes in your stomach helps break down the food into smaller form. The chemical energy in the food is being changed into mechanical energy. You need food to perform the necessary activities in your life.
