it is not the sun that is captured, but the sun's energy. it is the heat and the light that "feeds" the plant. :)

What is the link between the sun and coal?

The link between the sun and coal lies in the processes of photosynthesis and fossilization. Coal is formed from ancient plant material that captured sunlight and converted it into chemical energy through photosynthesis. Over millions of years, this organic matter was buried and subjected to heat and pressure, transforming it into coal. Thus, the energy stored in coal originally comes from the sun's energy captured by plants.

Why trees acquire more leaves during summer?

Ans.Because the process of Photosynthesis is triggered by the sun. The sun is stronger in summer and the temperatures are warmer - the cells metabolisim is increasedGreen is the most efficient color for absorbing light, hence maximising the amount of light captured by chlorophyll for photosynthesis.
