Question

Please help explain why this statement is false (genetics question). Thank you !!

Question 35 0/2 pts Which of the following is FALSE? Correct Answer Plants during photosynthesis use the potential energy within water and inorganic nutrients to make high energy molecules such as glucose. Epigenetics can explain why two individuals with the same DNA nucleotide sequences can have different gene expression. Signal transduction pathways enable some plants to attract beneficial insects that can attack herbivorous caterpillars that are consuming leaves of the plants. You Answered Sister chromatids should be identical if there has been no crossing over since DNA replication produces sister chromatids.

Answer 1

During the process of photosynthesis, green plants, algae, and some cyanobacteria responsible to convert light energy of the sun into chemical energy in the form of glucose ( carbohydrate or sugar). Photosynthetic organisms are always autotrophs, or these organisms are able to make energy from inorganic compounds. All non-autotrophic organisms are heterotrophs that utilize organic sources of chemical energy. The “chemical energy” is the energy stored in the chemical bonds of atoms in a molecule. we can say that Chemical bonds are a form of potential energy because when these bonds are brake, energy will be released.

so plants use CHEMICAL ENERGY for the process of photosynthesis
