Is there a multiple choice?
Answer:
C. Chemical energy
Explanation:
The different types of energy listed in this question are:
A) Electrical energy: it is the energy related to the flow of electrical charges (current)
B) Nuclear energy: it is the energy contained in the nuclei of the atoms, and released during nuclear reactions
C) Chemical energy: it is the energy contained in the bonds between molecules, and it is released during chemical reactions
D) Thermal energy: it is the energy associated with the motion of molecules
Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to transform the light energy (coming from the Sun) into chemical energy. In fact, in this process, plants absorb CO2 (from the atmosphere) and solar energy (from the light), and they convert them into sugars (glucose) and oxygen. Therefore, the initial energy coming as solar energy is converted into energy of the bonds of the molecules of glucose (so, chemical energy).
So, the correct option is C).
