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?
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.

A scientist built a model ecosystem that contains air, plants, and animals that eat those plants. It is sealed so no material can get in or out, but the glass sides allow light to get in. The model ecosystem can also be covered to prevent light from entering.The amount of carbon in the air inside the model ecosystem started out high. Now the amount of carbon in the air is decreasing. Is the model ecosystem now in sunlight or is it covered? What is happening to the number of energy storage molecules in the plants and animals as a result?
The model ecosystem is in sunlight, and there are fewer energy storage molecules in the plants and animals
The model ecosystem is in sunlight, and there are more energy storage molecules in the plants and animals.
The model ecosystem is covered so no light gets in, and there are fewer energy storage molecules in the plants and animals.
The model ecosystem is covered so no light gets in, and there are more energy storage molecules in the plants and animals.
