Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter states that matter cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed. So we need to choose the option that fits this law. The options are a. created, b. destroyed, c. tortured, d. sold. The law says matter can't be created or destroyed, so the blanks should be filled with "created" and "destroyed" (but the question is about what matter cannot be, so the first blank is "created" as per the law).

Answer:

a. created
