Answer:

Option B, chemical energy to thermal energy

Explanation:

All living organism feed on food that contains energy in the form of chemical energy. Once the food is intake and processed for fulfilling energy requirement of all metabolic processes with in a cell, the remaining energy is released as heat (thermal energy). Thus, an amoeba while consuming a sugar molecule converts chemical energy with in the sugar to thermal energy in the form of energy molecules.

Hence, option B is correct

snow_lady [41]

You conclude that the sucrose solution is hypotonic to the potato cells.

Explanation:

A solution is said to be hypotonic with respect to other solution if its concentration is less than the other solution to which it is compared.

A  concentration of solvent molecule in a hypotonic solution is higher than hypertonic solution so solvent moves from hypotonic to hypertonic solution due to osmosis.

The increase in weight of potato shows that it has gained water i.e. the water has entered from the sucrose solution to cells. So, the sucrose solution is hypotonic to the cell sap.
