Which form of energy does a plant store when light is transformed during photosynthesis into sugars?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

C. Chemical energy

Explanation:

The different types of energy listed in this question are:

A) Electrical energy: it is the energy related to the flow of electrical charges (current)

B) Nuclear energy: it is the energy contained in the nuclei of the atoms, and released during nuclear reactions

C) Chemical energy: it is the energy contained in the bonds between molecules, and it is released during chemical reactions

D) Thermal energy: it is the energy associated with the motion of molecules

Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to transform the light energy (coming from the Sun) into chemical energy. In fact, in this process, plants absorb CO2 (from the atmosphere) and solar energy (from the light), and they convert them into sugars (glucose) and oxygen. Therefore, the initial energy coming as solar energy is converted into energy of the bonds of the molecules of glucose (so, chemical energy).

So, the correct option is C).

Complete the paragraph to compare Uranus and Neptune.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Uranus and Neptun are outer planets od the Solar system, since they are located after the asteroid belt. All of these outer planets are much larger then the inner ones so they are called the "ice giants". The other reason for this name is that they are very far from the Sun, so their temperature is low. Another feature they have in common is their atmosphere which is composed of gases, including methane, which is responsible for their blue color, since methane absorbs red light. However Neptune is known for very fast winds and storms in its atmosphere which is responsible for its high activity and changes.

So, the blanks should be filled with:

Sun

methane

Neptune

outer planets
