Correct Answer: Chloroplast
Explanation:
The Chloroplast contains the wonder green pigment chlorophyll which is able to trap solar energy and use it for synthesis of food

pineal gland,
pituitary gland,
pancreas,
ovaries,
testes,
thyroid gland,

adrenal glands.
Correct Answer: Covalent bonds
Explanation:
Deoxyribose, which is a pentose, and a phosphate group are the two molecules together form the two sides of the DNA i.e, A sugar (deoxyribose) and a phosphate.
DNA is a double-stranded molecule twisted into a helix (think of a spiral staircase). Each spiraling strand, comprised of a sugar-phosphate backbone and attached bases, is connected to a complementary strand by non-covalent hydrogen bonding between paired bases. The bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) and guanine (G). A and T are connected by two hydrogen bonds. G and C are connected by three hydrogen bonds.
Correct Answer: Consume foods that have the most nutrition for their kcalories
