Coal is formed when dead plant matter submerged in swamp environments is subjected to the geological forces of heat and pressure over hundreds of millions of years. Over time, the plant matter transforms from moist, low-carbon peat, to coal, an energy- and carbon-dense black or brownish-black sedimentary rock.

Answer:
The plants and animals which died millions of years ago,were gradually buried deep in the earth and got covered with sediments like mud and sand,away from the reach of oxygen of air. In the absence of oxygen, the chemical effects of pressure, heat, and bacteria ,converted the buried remains of plants and animals into fossil fuels like coal, petroleum and natural gas.
