Which statement best explains how coal was formed?

Heat and pressure transformed the remains of prehistoric plants into coal.

Rocks were broken into smaller pieces called sediment, which formed layers over time.

Fossils of dinosaurs such as the Tyrannosaurus rex were buried and became coal after millions of years.

Pieces of coal were buried beneath many layers of sedimentary rock.
