Plants grow in many different shapes and sizes. Much of their shape depends on an internal structure that is composed of
carbon-containing molecules such as cellulose and lignin. Plants that have a strong internal structure can grow larger than other
plants because their structure can support their size.
Plants obtain the majority of the carbon necessary for building these structural molecules from -
O air
O microorganisms
O soil
O water
