Question

question 3 examine the plant cell diagram, which shows glucose being made from carbon dioxide and water. how does the cell obtain energy for the process? a the cell makes the needed energy in mitochondria. b the cell obtains the needed energy from food c the cell obtains the needed energy from sunlight d the cell makes the needed energy from soil nutrients

Explanation:

The process shown is photosynthesis in plant cells. Chloroplasts use sunlight to convert carbon - dioxide and water into glucose. Sunlight provides the energy for this process. Mitochondria are for cellular respiration, not the energy source for photosynthesis. Plants make their own food through photosynthesis and don't obtain energy for this process from pre - made food. Soil nutrients don't provide the energy for photosynthesis.

Answer:

C. The cell obtains the needed energy from sunlight
