Which of the following best explains the purpose of photosynthesis?
A
In photosynthesis, sunlight is used to make sugar
B
In photosynthesis, sunlight is used to make ATP
C
In photosynthesis, glucose is used to make ATP
D
In photosynthesis, oxygen is used to make sugar
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Plants use a process called photosynthesis to make food. During photosynthesis, plants trap light energy with their leaves. Plants use the energy of the sun to change water and carbon dioxide into a sugar called glucose. Glucose is used by plants for energy and to make other substances like cellulose and starch.

Detailed explanation-2: -The main purpose of photosynthesis is to convert radiant energy from the sun into chemical energy that can be used for food.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plants are autotrophs, which means they produce their own food. They use the process of photosynthesis to transform water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide into oxygen, and simple sugars that the plant uses as fuel.

Detailed explanation-4: -Photosynthesis is the process in which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of sugars.

Detailed explanation-5: -In contrast to humans and other animals, plants can produce glucose through a process known as photosynthesis. The green parts of plants use sunlight, water, and the gas carbon dioxide from the air to produce glucose and oxygen.
