A simplified model shows a caterpillar growing after eating. Before: small molecules are shown inside the caterpillar. The model shows these small molecules being rearranged and connected into larger structures in the body. After: the caterpillar has more body tissue, and the larger structures are now part of the new tissue. The model includes the statement: "Rearranged molecules support growth and repair." Which set of statements is supported by the model? (Choose the best option.)
