Chlorophyll pigment
A chloroplast is a double membrane organelle that captures light energy and converts it to chemical energy through photosynthesis. It contains chlorophyll, a pigment that absorbs light energy, and carries out the complex series of reactions that convert carbon dioxide and water into sugars.
It captures light energy.This energy is stored in glucose.
Possibly a solar energy panel could be considered as having the same function as a chloroplast, in that it captures light energy and converts it into mechanical or chemical energy.
Chloroplast converts light energy into chemical energy.Process is called photosynthesis.
light energy is transferred to chemical energy which is stored as glucose
The chloroplast is the plant cell organelle that captures and stores sunlight energy for photosynthesis. It contains chlorophyll, a pigment that absorbs light energy and converts it into chemical energy that is used to produce sugars.
The major organelle for photosynthesis is the chloroplast. It contains chlorophyll, the pigment that captures sunlight, and is where the process of converting light energy into chemical energy (glucose) occurs.
Chloroplast convert light energy. Mitochondria convert chemical energy itself
Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells. These organelles contain chlorophyll, a pigment that captures light energy and converts it into chemical energy in the form of glucose.
chloroplast
Chloroplast converts light energy into chemical energy.Solar panel converts light energy into electric energy.
Chloroplasts are the cell component responsible for converting light energy into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis. The chlorophyll pigment inside the chloroplasts captures sunlight and uses it to produce glucose and other organic compounds.
