Which of the following describes the role of water in supporting the chemical reactions that occur within various life forms? It
is used during photosynthesis to capture sunlight. It is critical in the process of cellular respiration. It adheres to the vascular tissue in plants. It allows sunlight to pass through it.
It is used during photosynthesis to capture sunlight
Explanation:
During photosynthesis, light energy from the Sun is converted and stored in sugars as chemical energy. The Sun light energy is used in the formation of complex sugars such as glucose from the combination of water from the ground and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere while oxygen is released as the byproduct. Organisms are then able to obtain energy from the glucose as well as carbon fiber
The chemical equation for the reaction is as follows;
It is critical in the process of ceeluar reespiration.
Explanation:
Water is critical in the process of cellular respiration, which is required for us to extract the energy we do from food. It DOES NOT capture sunlight in photosynthesis. In the first stage of photosynthesis, energy from the sun is captured to make glucose molecules, and oxygen from the water molecules is GIVEN OFF AS WASTE in the process.
