Answer:

Your answer should be A) Energy is neither destroyed nor created during energy transformations.

Step-by-step explanation:

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. Hope this helped and it was correct :)
