Which molecule, synthesized by plants and other photoautotrophs, is a major source of energy for cellular processes in both plants and animals? a Chlorophyll b Glucose c Nucleic acid d Wax

Answer 1

The correct answer is b Glucose.

Glucose is a simple sugar produced by plants and other photoautotrophs during photosynthesis. It serves as a major source of energy for cellular processes in both plants and animals. Chlorophyll is important for photosynthesis but does not serve as an energy source. Nucleic acids are involved in genetic information storage and transfer, while waxes are used for protective purposes in plants.
