Answer: In the roots

The leaves of a plant make sugar during the process of photosynthesis. To make sugar, the plant uses chlorophyll, energy from sunlight, carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and water. Some of the glucose (sugar) is changed to starch which they typically store in the roots for later use.

Plants typically store their starches and sugars for later use in the roots.
The root is the organ of a plant that lies under the surface of the soil or grows up above the ground or usually above water. Part of the functions of the root is that it serves as storage of food and nutrients. Plants create simple sugars, such as glucose and fructose, and starches which they use immediately or stores in the roots for later use.

Most coastal areas on Earth experience two high tides and two low tides every lunar day. What is a lunar day? Our days on Earth

ahrayia [7]

The correct answer is - C) 5:35 PM Friday.

The low tides occur twice in a lunar day, thus they are diurnal. The low tides appear when the Moon is between that point of the planet and the opposite of that point of the planet, thus in between, which is happening twice, on opposite parts of the planet.

Since the lunar day lasts for 24 h 50 m, we should just divide it in two, thus get 12 h 25 m. Than we should add the 12 h 25 to the time when one of the low tides appeared, which is 5:10 AM, so we will get 5:35 PM.

The low tides appear because the Moon is pulling the water upwards with its gravitational pull above the place where it is, so the side parts of the planet have their waters dragged away,thus resulting in the retreating of the water, known as low tide.
