Plants have chloroplasts which have thylakoids in them. The walls of thylakoids have chlorophyll which when exposed to light (basically red and blue) get excited and release an electron.This electron provides energy for photosynthesis.

Does cellular respiration or photosynthesis capture energy?
Cellular respiration release energy.Photosynthesis capture light energy.
Where do chloroplast capture energy to make food from?
The process of photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide, energy and light. The function of the chloroplast is to capture energy from light in order to photosynthesis (make food using light). Inside a chlorplast are hundreds of light absorbing "buckets" called photsystems which capture and absorb light energy. The energy from the light colletively creates energy which goes on to be used in the stages of photsynthesis.
Do plant cells capture energy by way of photosynthesis?
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.
Why are pigments such as chorophyll needed for photosynthesis?
Pigments like chlorophyll, capture light energy which is used for the first step of photosynthesis, the light dependent reaction.
What form of energy do plants need and where do they get it from?
Plants are able to capture light energy using chlorophyll in the process of photosynthesis.
Does cellular respiration or photosynthesis capture energy?
Cellular respiration release energy.Photosynthesis capture light energy.
What do you call the capture of light energy by chlorophyll molecules?
Photosynthesis.

The process by which a cell captures the energy in sunlight?
Plant cells use chloroplast- animals don't capture energy.
Why does photosynthesis require light energy?
Photosynthesis need light energy for several reasons. Plants cannot make their own energy, so they must capture it from the sun. This is how they respire and make their food.
During photosynthesis light energy becomes?
chemical energy Chlorophylls capture light energy. This energy is stored in chemical bonds of glucose

What form of energy do plants need and where do they get it from?

What is the process of capture energy from sunlight?
Photosynthesis is the process used by plants to capture the energy that comes to us from the sun that is then held in starch or sugars.
The process by which plants capture light energy and change it into food?
this process is called photosynthesis (photo-light, synthesis-to prepare).
What percent of light energy is fixed during photosynthesis?
plants only capture 1% of the radiant enery from the sun used in photosynthesis.
