The complete question is :
Algae are plantlike organisms that live in the water. These algae have been in sunlight for several hours now. What can the algae do because they are in sunlight? What does this mean for the number of energy storage molecules in the algae?The algae can . . .
take in carbon from the air. The carbon is used to make energy storage molecules.
take in carbon from the air. The carbon is used to break down energy storage molecules.
give off carbon to the air. Giving off carbon allows them to make energy storage molecules.
give off carbon to the air. Giving off carbon uses up energy storage molecules.
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Algae are plant like organism found in water, they are capable of performing photosynthesis.
Th algae in water trap carbon dioxide from the atmosphere( water) in order to convert into energy molecules known as glucose in the presence of sunlight.
This means the number of energy storage molecules in the algae increases after photosynthesis.
This is how the algae uses sunlight in order to prepare glucose from them.
