The answer is B, 54 g. Reactants and products have the same mass, so if the product is 72 g of carbon dioxide, and all we know is there is 18 g of carbon, then we can find the difference of 72 and 18 by subtracting 18 from 72 which is 54 g.

From the given balanced chemical reaction,
                                   C + O2 -> CO2
the mass ratio of the carbon and oxygen that is needed for the reaction is 12:32. Simplifying the ratio gives 3 unit mass C is to 8 unit mass O2. Given 18 g of carbon,
           18 g x (32 g oxygen / 12 g carbon) = 48 grams. 
For the given product, the ratio of oxygen to carbon dioxide is 32: 44.
                      72 g CO2 x (32 g O2 / 44 g CO2) = 52.36 grams

The statement that all animal cells have the same number of chromosomes is false. 
<span>The chromosomes are structures located inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells. </span>Cells from different species have different number of chromosomes. For example bacteria have one or two chromosomes, koalas have 16 chromosomes, snail 24, tiger cell has 38 chromosomes, carp has 100 and so on.
