Multi-choice Q: THe chemical energy stored in a plant is an example of a type of:?

Question

a. potential energy
B. Kinetic Energy
C. Solar Energy
D. Radiant Energy

My Guess is potential energy, however I'm not sure.

Answer 1

potential energy for sure.

Radiant is not it.
Kinetic is energy in motion (use)
Solar energy is not stored.
Potential energy is stored energy.

Plants store the energy (usually glucose monossacharides) in polyssacharide chains, mainly starch.
An example would be amylopectin.
Whereas humans use glycogen as a glucose energy storage polyssacharide.
good luck, I hoe it is correct.

Answer 2

you are right. a is the answer though C solar energy also could be accepted since all plants and trees grow only because of photosynthesis and that is possible only because of solar energy.

The potential energy can take several forms like chemical potential energy, positional potential energy (like a body at a height), elastic potential energy (watch spring, rubber band that is stretched etc.), electrical potential energy (a charged condenser) and so on.

Answer 3

Potential energy. It was solar energy. Photosynthesis converted it into potential energy.

Answer 4

I'd say solar as a plant needs light from the sun to carry out photosynthesis?

Answer 5

potential
