Plant gather the sun energy and with this energy they convert carbon bi oxide and water into glucose molecule.(6 C O 2 + 6 H 2 O + Energy = C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2) These glucose molecules are attached with each other to form carbohydrates. These carbohydrate are the source of energy to plants and plant eating animals also.

Use the sun to make energy rich molecules?
The process in which the sun is used to make energy rich molecules is called Photosynthesis. This process uses carbon dioxide, water and energy collected from the sun, to produce glucose molecules and oxygen gas. This process happens in plants and is the plant's main source of energy.
Pigments like chlorophyll and carotene are molecules that plants use to?
First it is important to note that the color green is given off [as visible light] by plants BECAUSE THEY CANNOT USE IT.
What energy takes place when coal is burned?
When coal is burned, chemical energy changes to thermal energy. The energy of sunlight was stored in the organic molecules of dead plants, which were compressed and altered to form long-chain hydrocarbons. Burning the coal oxidizes these molecules, releasing heat.

What energy do plants transform into chemical energy?
Plants transform light energy into chemical energy during photosynthesis.
What is the molecule that plants gather the sun's energy with light absorbing?
Chlorophyll.
What are the plant cell molecules that absorb light energy called?
Chlorophyll.
How does a plant get energy from the sun?
plants get energy from the sun and its sunlightplants don't energy from the sun light they get the energy from light energy.
Plants take in energy by absorbing what?
sunlight!
46 How do the plants gather the energy from the sun?
photosynthesise. they gather chemical energy from the heat energy produced by the sun
What is the relationship between chlorophyll a and carotenoids?
In leaves, the carotenoids are usually masked by the chlorophylls. In the autumn, as the quantity of chlorophyll in the leaf declines, the carotenoids become visible and produce the yellows and reds of autumn foliage.
Plants gather the suns energy with?
Photosynthesis
What is the difference between energy releasing reaction and energy absorbing action?
Beacuse when you release energy out of your body or somthing, somthing has to take in the energy so absorbing;SO, it's like a chain reaction you release somthing els takes in, like humans breath oxygen plants breath our carbon dioxide and plants give us oxygenSo, it differs because when energy-realses somthing needs to take that energy in as in absorbing
Plants take in energy in the form of what during photosynthesis?
The plants take in energy by absorbing sunlight.
Plants gather the sun's energy using the?
leaves/ leaf
How do plants and animals relesase energy?
Plants release energy by absorbing in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. Animals release energy by eating and their waste releases energy by turning in to a decomposed material to make humus for plants
Plants transform some of the electromagnetic energy form the sun into?
During photo, plants form the electric energy they gather from the sun into fart energy.
