An African game warden recently found several rhinoceros tusks. Because rhinos are endangered, all animals are tracked and the warden knows which animals live in the wild and which live in captivity. The warden suspected that poachers had stolen several captive rhinos and killed them for their tusks. The warden took the tusks with attached tissue for DNA analysis to determine if the rhinos were stolen from the preserve and if he could prosecute the poachers.

where are the choice options?

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.

the answer is 0.42 is that is an option. this question provides no info
