Students planted the same type and number of seeds in pots a and b. the amount and type of soil in both pots were also the same. each plant received the same amount of water each week. pot a was placed by a sunny window. pot b was placed in a closet. after four weeks, the students observed the plants in both pots. the plants in pot a were green with thick stems. the plants in pot b were yellow with thin stems. which statement best explains why the plants in pot a were different from the plants in pot b?
a) pot a contained more soil than pot b.
b) pot a contained more seeds than pot b.
c) pot a received more sunlight than pot b.
d) pot a received more water than pot b.
eliminate

C) Pot A received more sunlight than pot B.

Explanation:

Plants are autotrophic beings, that is, they produce their own food from inorganic compounds. This occurs through photosynthesis, in which plants use carbon dioxide and water to synthesize glucose. Photosynthesis will allow plants to produce the molecules necessary for their development and healthy growth.

However, in order for this process to occur, plants need sunlight, as it is the energy that enables the occurrence of fundamental chemical reactions for photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is a pigment that gives plants a green color and it captures light energy, which is the first step in enabling photosynthesis.

If the plant is kept out of sunlight, inside a cabinet for example, it will not be able to start photosynthesis and will not be a strong and healthy plant, even if it has access to quality water and soil.

you did not attach the discourse, but i assume it to be the discourse on the origin and basis of inequality among men (the original titile in french is: "discours sur l'origine et les fondements de l'inégalité parmi les hommes"), also know as "second discourse". in this discourse, jean-jacques rousseau emphasizes that private property is the basis of all inequalities.

therefore, what enabled the old regime to maintain as long as it did was private property.

b. lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere   is the answer most likely
