Answer:

a. It is a type of sugar.

Explanation:

Glucose is a chemical molecule belonging to the group of carbohydrates, it is a simple sugar. Glucose is the basic unit used as fuel by a complex cellular enzymatic system that degrades this molecule to obtain energy for all the functions of the body of animals and plants. Glucose also participates as a precursor to other important substances.

Glucose is produced by plants through a process called photosynthesis, where glucose molecules are formed by joining water and carbon dioxide molecules with the help of solar energy and oxygen release. Glucose in plants serves as energy, reserves of nutrients (sucrose and starch, among other carbohydrates that are accumulated in fruits, seeds, stems, leaves and roots; each plant has its own way of making its reserve) and for its own formation and plant growth (all parts are made from the union of glucose molecules forming the cellulose that gives plants structures).

The Susquehanna River, which runs through the states of New York, Pennsylvania, an Maryland , received the title- America's most
Lina20 [59]

This  produces several negative effects on the biodiversity of the river ecosystem.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Susquehanna river is polluted by the excess release of nutrients like phosphorous and nitrogen from agricultural land and sewage treatment plants. This can adversely affect the health of the river. The excess of nutrients will accelerate the growth of algae in the river.

The dead algae that settle at the bottom of the river decay by consuming the oxygen present in the river. This will reduce the amount of dissolved oxygen in the river and affect aquatic life.

Thick algal growth partially prevents the penetration of sunlight into the water and this affects the growth of submerged plants which are food to the fish.
