Convert the radiant energy of the sun to chemical energy of glucose (photosynthesis)
A
Nucleus
B
Cell Membrane
C
Cytoplasm
D
Mitochondria
E
Chloroplast
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hint: In plants, the radiant energy from the sun will be converted into chemical energy to that of glucose (sugar). This transformation is called photosynthesis. Plants use water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight and transform these into oxygen and glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis is the process in which plants collect radiant energy (from the Sun) and transform it into chemical energy. The chemical energy is stored in the plant as sugar and is available as food. The leaves of plants contain everything needed to absorb the rays of the Sun and start photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis is the process of utilizing and converting light or solar energy into chemical energy. Sunlight is absorbed by chlorophyll of leaves. Here, light energy is converted into chemical energy and is stored as ATP molecules. This energy is used by plants for the life processes.

Detailed explanation-4: -What is photosynthesis? 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-5: -Photosynthesis is a two-step process. In chloroplasts, chlorophyll molecules absorb sunlight and pass the extra energy to molecular partners that use it to generate the energy-storing chemicals adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH).
