Photosynthesis is not the process of capturing sunlight, it's the process of turning light energy into chemical energy. Plants capture energy through chloroplasts, which is what our solar panels are based on.

What does the Chlorplast of the cell do?
Chloroplast is an organelle that is only found in plant cells. It's job is to capture light energy and can make sugar from carbon dioxide and water. It contains a pigment that makes plant cells, stems, and leaves green.
How does photosynthesis provide energy for the plant cells?
it feeds the plant cells
What do plants cells use to capture sunlight?
They use the various types of Chlorophyll molecules.
If a plant dont have photosynthesis will it die?
It is impossible for a plant not have photosynthesis because photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast, in the plant cell. There are billions+ cells in a plant. But yes, because photosynthesis is the process where plants use the energy of sunlight to convert it into sugars and starches for energy.
Where in plant cells are the energy-absorbing molecules for photosynthesis located?
the chloroplast
The process by which a cell captures the energy in sunlight?
Plant cells use chloroplast- animals don't capture energy.
What cell caputres energy and producess food?
All cells "capture" energy, and are able to convert that energy into food. Plant Cells (Prokaryotes) capture the energy emitted from the sun and convert that into energy so they can survive (Photosynthesis).
What does the Chlorplast of the cell do?
Chloroplast is an organelle that is only found in plant cells. It's job is to capture light energy and can make sugar from carbon dioxide and water. It contains a pigment that makes plant cells, stems, and leaves green.
How does photosynthesis provide energy for the plant cells?
it feeds the plant cells
Where do plant cells get energy for photosynthesis?
sunlight
What do plant cells use to capture light?
They use a process known as photosynthesis.
Organelles in plant cells that function in photosynthesis or storage are called?
Organelles in plant cells that function in photosynthesis or storage are called chloroplasts. Chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the sun. Vacuoles are involved in storage of soluble carbohydrates or proteins.
What creates the energy used in photosynthesis?
The sunlight the chloroplast in the plant cells capture. The chloroplast first gets the sunlight. Then, it uses other stuff like CO2 and water to create the energy that the plant uses.
What do chloroplastes and chlorophll do?
Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells that capture energy from the sun to be used in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is a green pigment that is also found in plant cells. It absorbs sunlight to be used in the process of photosynthesis as well. Chlorophyll can be found inside of the chloroplasts.
Do plant cells need photosynthesis?
plant cells need photosynthesis and respiration to create energy for cell work, reproduction, and repairs.
What provies energy but only for plant cells?
Photosynthesis.
How go plant cells make energy?
Photosynthesis!
