Isn't this a sign of to much sun but I thought lemon trees want full sun?

This tree is grown from seed and is in indoors. It’s about four feet high. I have several cuttings from trees that are over 100 years old and they are producing fruit. They love the sun. Their leaves love the sun. Why is this lemon different?

The leaves are long and slender unlike the others which are fat and slightly oval in shape. The tree does have the characteristic thorns so I know it’s a lemon and not something else.

I have theorized that maybe since my tree is from a seed from lemon bought at the store might be the reason why it’s sickly. Maybe it’s the offspring of a hybrid?

What do you think? Is direct sun not good for this lemon?

Any links or books on the subject of temperature on water pressure (in its fluid form) would be greatly appreciated. My 8th grader is doing aproject on this so It would be great if the pages weren't over the top complicated.

Thanx in advance

Many years ago in a far off country, a lord invited all his workers to a Christmas party in his castle. George and Beryl set off at 11am. At 11:30, Beryl asked how far they had gone. George said they would stop at an inn for lunch soon and that they had already travelled 3 times as far as the distance still to go to the inn. After lunch the couple leave the inn at 1pm. Having overeaten, George drove more slowly than before. After an hour, exactly 2 miles from where she had asked her 1st question, Beryl asked if they had much further to go. George mumbled, 3 times as far as we have come since leaving the inn. Beryl took over driving and they arrived at the castle at 3:30pm in good time for the party. What was the total distance that the couple had to travel to reach the castle?

According to Evolutionary Physics, at the Big Bang elemental particles were blasted out. Soon hydrogen was formed with atomic weights of 1,2, and 3. Then isotopes of hyrogen formed helium with atomic weight 4 through fusion. Then Helium was bombarded with isotopes of hydrogen and produced lithium with atomic weights of 6,7,8. And so on and so on... Until all the elements were formed.

My problem is that Helium (AW-4) is so stable that nothing can fuse with it to form lithium. In fact the absence of an isotope of helium at atomic weight 5, accents the fact. If this is the case, how did we get the other 100 elements?
