C is true.

A is definitely false, since photosynthesis does not occur in petals, but in the leaves (or the portions with green pigmentation)
B is unlikely, depending on which country/state the tap water is from. Anyway, water is more important than nitrogen for the plant to survive.

Hope this helps! :)

"susan is consuming 70 grams of protein per day on her 2,000-kilocalorie-per-day diet. what percent of susan's diet is protein?"
nirvana33 [79]
The answer to this question would be: 14%
Protein will give a calorie about 4kcal/gram. Then, the total calorie of protein from Susan meal would be: 70 grams * 4kcal/g= 280 <span>kilo calorie</span>.
To find the percentage you will need to divide the total calorie diet with the protein calorie. The calculation would be:

protein percentage= protein calorie/ total calorie 
protein percentage= 280kcal / 2,000kcal = 14%
