Which variable is most important to the following problem?

at 10: 00 a. m., a patient's temperature was 101.5 degrees. at 1: 00 p. m., the nurse took the patient's temperature again and found it was 105.8 degrees, the highest ever recorded. how long did it take for the patient's temperature to reach a record high?

a.
the number of hours it took for the temperature to reach its peak

b.
the number of degrees that the temperature changed

c.
the degree measure for the record-breaking temperature

A. The number of hours it took for the temperature to reach its peak.

Step-by-step explanation:

At 10:00 a.m., a patient's temperature was 101.5 degrees.

At 1:00 p.m., the nurse took the patient's temperature again and found it was 105.8 degrees, the highest ever recorded.

So, it took 3 hours for the temperature to reach a record high.

Here the important variable is - the number of hours it took for the temperature to reach its peak.

question:

could we have options?

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
