Where does the energy for photosynthesis come from and what part of the plant pigments are involved in photosynthesis?

The energy for photosynthesis comes from respiration. The plant takes in oxygen and uses it for energy with in its cells. The chloroplast have a green substance called chlorophyll which absorbes the light needed for photosynthesis. the reaction happens there. Unfortunately the previous answer is not quite right. The ultimate source of energy for photosynthesis is sunlight. Plants convert the light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, which they can then use as a source of energy in their cells. Energy is released from glucose by respiration.


What is the process when plants change light energy into chemical energy?

The prodecers use photosynthesis to turn the sun's radiant energy into chemical energy.


Why are animal cells are not capable of carrying out photosynthesis?

Chloroplasts are the organelles plant cells use for photosynthesis. Animal cells do not contain chloroplasts.Animal cells are not capable of carrying out photosynthesis because of the lack of energy from the sun. Our cells do not have chloroplast which is needed to contribute to photosynthesis. To contribute to photosynthesis you need chloroplast to pull energy from the sun. Animals have mitochondria in the cell which plants also have, but instead of it collecting the energy from the chloroplast the mitochondria collects energy from the food we consume. Fact is, we have a food chain which is needed for energy for animals. Without the chloroplast and chlorophyll, we have no means of photosynthesis.


Does photosynthesis occur in all living plant cells?

No, many of the plants cells do photosynthesize, but not all the cells are capable of this process. The roots are a good example of non-photosynthetic cells, and you can see this by their pale color which means they have a lack of pigment (the pigment is key in photosynthesis).


Do plant cells carry on respiration and photosynthesis?

Plant cells carry on photosynthesis, but they do not carry on respiration.

What kind of cells contains chloroplasts?

Plant Cells---------------------------------------------------Plant cells use sunlight as their energy source, and the sunlight must be converted into energy inside the cell in a process called photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are the structures that perform this function.Animal cells do not have chloroplasts because they do not make food from sunlight.


What synthesis energy in plant?

Photosynthesis is the conversion of water and sunlight into ATP (Energy) for the plant cells.

If a plant dont have photosynthesis will it die?

It is impossible for a plant not have photosynthesis because photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast, in the plant cell. There are billions+ cells in a plant. But yes, because photosynthesis is the process where plants use the energy of sunlight to convert it into sugars and starches for energy.
