Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
light energy is converted into chemical energy (glucose)
A
cellular respiration
B
photosynthesis
C
endergonic reactions
D
exergonic reactions
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants and certain other organisms synthesise their own food i.e. transform sunlight energy into chemical energy with the help of chlorophyll, carbon dioxide and water.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Light energy is converted to chemical energy during the first stage of photosynthesis, which involves a series of chemical reactions known as the light-dependent reactions.
