Question

Which statement best describes the relationship of photosynthesis and energy?

Answer 1

The process of photosynthesis is energy-storing because the process converts light energy into chemical energy, which is  stored in the bonds of glucose.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plant converts the light energy of the sun into chemical energy.

This process is carried out in presence of a green pigment called chlorophyll which traps the light energy.

The chemical energy generated by photosynthesis is stored in the bonds of sugars that are produced by photosynthesis.

This energy is released from the bond by the process of respiration which utilizes glucose as the raw material.

Thus, we can say that photosynthesis is energy storing process.
