Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In photosynthesis, plants use chlorophyll to produce
A
sugar
B
water
C
energy
D
carbon dixoide
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Photosynthetic cells contain chlorophyll and other light-sensitive pigments that capture solar energy. In the presence of carbon dioxide, such cells are able to convert this solar energy into energy-rich organic molecules, such as glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -chlorophyll: Any of several green pigments found in plants that perform photosynthesis-creating sugars (foods) from carbon dioxide and water. chloroplast: A tiny structure in the cells of green algae and green plants that contain chlorophyll and creates glucose through photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Plants produce sugar and oxygen in a process called photosynthesis, by using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide. This is an important process on Earth, since it removes carbon dioxide from the air and provides food for us.
