Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Plants used to prepare food in the presence of sunlight. Therefore, plants uses solar energy to make food.

Due to solar energy various chemical reactions take place in the food.

Thus, we can conclude that chemical energy is stored in our food and this chemical energy start out as light energy from the sun.

The answer is: light energy from the sun.

Light energy is radiant energy from the sun; it's the only kind of energy we can see with our eyes.

In photosynthesis (convert light energy into chemical energy), the carbon in carbon(IV) oxide is being reduced to form glucose.

The pigment chlorophyll absorbs one photon and loses one electron (it passed throw an electron transport chain) in the light-dependent reactions.

Light energy is transformed into chemical energy, that is stored in carbohydrate molecules (glucose), which are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water.

An ionic compound has a slightly negative heat of solution in water. would you expect it to be soluble or insoluble in water?
Grace [21]
The ionic compound will be soluble in water. 
The value of the heat of solution of a substance is one of the factors that determine whether a substance will dissolve or not. A negative heat of solution signifies that the reaction will be spontaneous, so the ionic compound will dissolve in water.
