Plants are chlorophyll-containing photosynthetic organisms. Thus, they convert solar or radiant energy into chemical energy under the process termed as photosynthesis.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Plants are chlorophyll-containing photosynthetic living beings. Consequently, they convert radiant energy into chemical energy under the procedure named photosynthesis.
Except for remote ocean hydro-thermal environment, the sun is the only source for all biological systems on earth. Plants catch just 2-10 percent of the solar radiation and transmit it as chemical energy. All creatures are reliant for their nourishment on producers (plants), either directly or indirectly. So there is a stream of energy from the sun (radiant energy) to producers and then to consumers (chemical energy).
