Plants use sunlight to convert nutrients into energy. what form of energy transfer is taking place? the__ energy of the sun is converted into__ energy by the plants

1)

a. chemical

b. potential

c. radiant

d. sound

2)

a. chemical

b. kinetic

c. mechanical

d. thermal

The (C.) radiant energy of the sun is converted into (A.) chemical energy by the plants.

Explanation:

This occurs by a process called Photosynthesis and is a chemical reaction that takes place inside a plant, producing food for the plant to survive. Carbon dioxide, water and light from the Sun are all needed for photosynthesis to take place. Photosynthesis happens in the leaves of a plant.

relative dating involves things like higher layers are most recent than rocks lower in the sequence. this can be extended to the known sequence of fossils. rocks containing rabbit fossils are later than those containing dinosaur fossils.  

absolute dating methods mainly use radioactive elements that have known rates of decay and produce recognizable products. for example potassium 40 decays to produce argon. once a rock has solidified the argon is trapped. by measuring the argon and potassium0 you can get an accurate number for the age.  

some other methods are good for archaeological ages. dendrochronology involves recognizing the sequence of tree rings. the orientation of magnetized particles in baked clay can be used to date a fire.
