PHOTOSYNTHESIS

THE CHLOROPLAST

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The sun gives the chloroplasts ____
A
energy
B
sugar
C
water
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The pigment called Chlorophyll present in Chloroplasts helps in photosynthesis by absorbing sunlight and transforming it into chemical energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis is the process of a plant taking energy from the Sun and creating sugars. When the energy from the Sun hits a chloroplast and the chlorophyll molecules, light energy is converted into the chemical energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -The chloroplast absorbs the energy in sunlight and uses it to produce sugars. Chloroplasts play an important part in the process of photosynthesis in some organisms. The chloroplast absorbs the energy in sunlight and uses it to produce sugars.

Detailed explanation-4: -Chlorophyll’s job in a plant is to absorb light-usually sunlight. The energy absorbed from light is transferred to two kinds of energy-storing molecules. Through photosynthesis, the plant uses the stored energy to convert carbon dioxide (absorbed from the air) and water into glucose, a type of sugar.

Detailed explanation-5: -Chloroplasts and photosynthetic bacteria obtain high-energy electrons by means of photosystems that capture the electrons that are excited when sunlight is absorbed by chlorophyll molecules.
