What is the name of the leaf structure in which plants trap solar energy?

It is not just in leaves, any part of a plant that is colored green does this.
Plants use a chemical called chlorophyll to perform photosynthesis, converting the energy of the photons in sunlight into glucose molecules and waste oxygen.

What is the function of on leaf?
Leaf absorbs sun rays which leads to PHOTOSYNTHESI. Leaf is like a solar plate , convert the light energy to other products of plants
What part of a plant cell is most similar to a solar cell?
Solar cells are not like leaves of plants in almost every fashion. The similarity is that they both get their energy from the sun, however the solar cell gets this energy in a completely different fashion when compared to a leaf.
The internal leaf structure of C-4 plants?
what is the name of the light trapping substance in the leaf
What is the different between palmately compound leaves and palmately simple leaves?
A simple leaf is a leaf, such as an aspen leaf, that does not divide into parts. A compound leaf is a leaf, such as a walnut leaf, that has several leaflets coming off of a single petiole.
Which structure found only in a leaf cell?
One structure found only in a leaf cell is the chloroplast. Chloroplasts are responsible for the process of photosynthesis, where they convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose (sugar) and release oxygen as a byproduct. This unique structure allows leaf cells to capture and use sunlight energy to produce food for the plant.

What form of energy is taken by the leaf?
Solar energy
Does a leaf convert solar energy into sugar?
Not really. The solar energy is used by the leaf to make glucose using water and CO2. Consider solar energy the fire when someone is cooking. :)

How does solar energy enter a leaf?
by photosinthetic pigments
The internal leaf structure of C-4 plants?
what is the name of the light trapping substance in the leaf
Which structure in the leaf allows oxygen to enter a plant?
plants maybe
Plants gather the sun's energy using the?
leaves/ leaf
What in plants capture sunlight and convert it to energy?
leaf
Which object converts sunlight into sugar?
Nothing really converts energy to sugars. The energy of sunlight is stored in sugars. Which structure is responsible depends on how detailed you want to be: the green plant, the leaf cell or the chloroplast.
What energy transfer takes place in a leaf?
The energy transfers that take place in a leaf is light energy into chemical energy (the glucose), or more commonly refered to as osmosis
Is an oak leaf a producer?
An Oak tree is a producer Leaves provide food and collecting energy from Solar energy
