D
light
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Plants convert the light energy to chemical energy through photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis is the process in which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of sugars. In a process driven by light energy, glucose molecules (or other sugars) are constructed from water and carbon dioxide, and oxygen is released as a byproduct.

Detailed explanation-3: -Solar energy is converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Biomass: Combustion reaction converts chemical energy into light and heat. Natural gas: Combustion reaction converts chemical energy into light and heat.
