The correct answer is option C

The reaction of cellular respiration and burning of fossil fuel needs carbon. Fossil fuel are like coal is made up of carbon. Organic compounds are made up of carbon(abundant), hydrogen and oxygen in small amounts.

The cellular respiration is the process by which the body obtains energy in the form of ATP by the breakdown of carbohydrates which is also a carbon compound.

Answer:

The correct answer is option C, Carbon

Explanation:

In cellular respiration, a higher carbon molecule i.e glucose breaks down in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water and energy.  The chemical equation for cellular respiration is given below –  

C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2 --> 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + ATP

Like wise, in combustion of any fuel , the higher carbon molecules burn in the presence of oxygen to release gases like carbon dioxide methane etc.  

Thus, a fossil fuel must be made up of carbon.

Explain phloem structure and function, using the following terms: sieve elements, sieve cells, companion cells, girdling, transl
madam [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Phloem cells are conducting vessels that are found in vascular plant. They are used in the transport of photosynthate produce during photosynthesis from the source of production to other parts of the body.

It consist of sieve elements, which are the conducting vessel that aids transport of sugar round the body. They are very active before maturity at mature they are no longer in use.

Companion cells are used in replacement of sieve element at maturity, they function in metabolism together with the sieve tube Translocation is the transport or movement of sugar round the body.

Girdlings is the removal of the bark of a plant this can inhibit active transport of food.

Non-reducing sugar are monosacharrides such as glucose that are produce and transported round the body of the plant.

P-protein are found in the plants sap usually in large amount in the sieve elements.
