The correct answer is option (d)- metamorphic rocks.

The metamorphic rocks are the rocks formed by the existing rock types by the process of metamorphism. The sedimentary, igneous or other metamorphic rocks can undergo transformation due to the effect of the heat and pressure.

Hence, the sandstone and the basalt under constant heat and pressure, result in the formation of the metamorphic rocks.

Which class of organic molecules provides long-term energy storage. a. carbohydrates b. proteins c. starches d. lipids
Sphinxa [80]
Answer: D - Lipids
Lipids provide a long term energy storage because they contain longer C-H bonds compared to the other organic molecules, making it easier for them to store larger amount of energy. Moreover, upon burning they produce twice the amount of calories compared to that of the carbohydrates.

const2013 [10]

Answer:

a) i) Xylem

   ii) Upper epidermis  

   iii) Stoma

   iv) Chroloplast  

   v) Palisade cell layer

b) By a waxy layer on the cuticle of the leaf

Explanation:

The plant's leaves have a large surface area that is capable of absorbing sunlight. The plant's waxy layer in the surface of the leaf protects it from the loss of water, as well as of diseases caused by the entry of microorganisms. The palisade cell's surface is a single layer of cells underneath the upper epidermis that is adapted to absorb light energy.

The waxy layer is a primary physical barrier composed of insoluble polymers and lipids whose function is to protect the leaves against the entry of harmful organisms including virus, bacteria and fungus. Moreover, the plant's waxy cuticle is also a barrier that prevents the loss of water and solutes.
