It depends on the plant; some have modifications that allow different parts of the plant to do most of the photosynthesis. Typically, the leaves do the most photosynthesis. They are broad and flat that allows increased surface area for reactions.

What part of a plant takes in sunlight and air?
Chloroplasts, which are organelle structures located in a eukaryotic plant cell, take in the sunlight which then converts it into food during the photosynthesis process. Chloroplasts also contain a substance called Chlorophyll which give the plants a green pigmentation, resulting in the green-coloring of plants.
What part of the plant captures sunlight the leaf root or stem?
Leaf captures sunlight
Is a plant part that cant do photosynthesis the roots?
Yes.Photosynthesis turns sunlight into food for the plant. Because the roots are underground, they don't get any sunlight. This prevents them from performing photosynthesis.
What is the chloroplast is it the green part of a plant that uses the energy from the sunlight?
a plastid containing chlorophyll found in plant cells. They are responsible for absorbing sunlight and performing the process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS. :-)
Does the leave use the sunlight to make food for the plant?
Yes, the leaf is the part of the plant that carries out photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process in which a plant uses sunlight, water and Carbon Dioxide to make food for itself.
What is the organelle that converts sunlight to energy for the plant?
Chloroplast.
What does the word photosynthesizing mean?
When a plant uses sunlight and converts it into energy
What roll does chlorophyll play in photosynthesis?
Clorophyll converts sunlight into energy for the plant.
What converts sunlight to chemical energy on the plant cell?
The organelle which converts solar energy into useable energy for the plant is called the chloroplast. The chloroplast contains chlorophyll, the green pigment in plants which traps light and converts it into glucose, water, and oxygen.
How are plant pigments inlvoled in photosynthesis?
The pigment known as chlorophyll converts the sunlight into useable energy used during the process of photosynthesis in which the plant converts carbon dioxide into organic compounds.

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.
Why is sunlight important for a plant to make its food?
because the plant converts the light energy (from the sun) into chemical energy (it's food)
How does chloraphyll help the plants?
Chlorophyll is part of the photosynthetic process which converts carbon dioxide into sugars using sunlight. Chlorophyll is generally the part that absorbs sunlight.
What part of a cell converts light energy into sugar?
chloroplast takes in sunlight to make sugar
What part of the plant captures sunlight the leaf root or stem?
Leaf captures sunlight
What part of the plant absorbs sunlight?
The leaves absorb sunlight and change it into energy.
