Plants grow in many different shapes and sizes. Much of their shape depends on an internal structure that is composed of carbon-

containing molecules such as cellulose and lignin. Plants that have a strong internal structure can grow larger than other plants because their structure can support their size.
Plants obtain the majority of the carbon necessary for building these structural molecules from —

A) air

B) microorganisms

C) soil

D) water

Answer:

A. Air

Explanation:

Lignin which has a glucos link is a unique hydrocarbon comprising 8-20% of the cell wall of plants. It is a complex, dense, amorphous, secondary cell wall polymer found in the trachea elements and sclerenchyma of terrestrial plants.

Since plant absorbs carbon dioxide from air to form glucose and hence, starch; That is the source of carbon to build other macromolecules.

Water which it absorbs from soil is not of carbon content neither do plant take in microorganisms.

A potential energy diagram is shown. A graph is plotted with Potential Energy in KJ on the y axis and Reaction Pathway on the x
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

35 KJ.

Explanation:

The activation energy is the minimum energy that must be overcome for a reaction to take place.

In the diagram given above, the activation energy lies between the energy of the reactants and that at the peak.

Thus we can calculate the activation energy as follow:

Energy of reactants = 30 KJ

Energy at the peak = 65 KJ

Activation energy =..?

Activation energy = Energy at the peak – Energy of reactants

Activation energy = 65 – 30

Activation energy = 35 KJ

Therefore, the activation energy of th reaction is 35 KJ
