Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Photosynthesis is the process by which energy is converted to chemical energy in plant cells. In cellular respiration plants use the chemical energy stored during photosynthesis in basic life processes. During both photosynthesis and cellular respiration, energy is converted.

Detailed explanation-2: -The main energy transformation that occurs in photosynthesis in green leaves is Light energy to chemical energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -In the case of an electric bulb, the electrical energy is converted to light and heat. The amount of electrical energy put into a bulb = the amount of light energy (desirable form) plus the heat energy that comes out of the bulb (undesirable form).
