Photosynthesis is a metabolic pathway that converts light energy into chemical energy. Its initial substrates are carbon dioxide and water; the energy source is sunlight (electromagnetic radiation); and the end-products are oxygen and (energy-containing) carbohydrates, such as sucrose, glucose or starch. This process is one of the most important biochemical pathways,[1] since nearly all life on Earth either directly or indirectly depends on it as a source of energy. It is a complex process occurring in plants, algae, as well as bacteria such as cyanobacteria. Photosynthetic organisms are also referred to as photoautotrophs
What else can I help you with?
A student observes that a type of eubacteria contains chlorophyll. Which of these does this type of bacteria have in common with plants?
Both the eubacteria and plants have chlorophyll, which is a pigment responsible for photosynthesis. This allows both organisms to harness energy from sunlight to produce energy-rich molecules.
Why do plants need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis?
Plants need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis because it is a key ingredient in the process of converting sunlight into energy. Carbon dioxide is used by plants to make glucose, which is a type of sugar that provides energy for the plant to grow and survive.
Which of these is a form of energy stored in a plant?
Plants use a type of carbohydrate called starch to store their energy. For long-term energy storage, plants use a nucleotide called adenosine triphosphate (ATP.)
Where does the energy come from that drives cell metabolism?
Plants and some algae get their energy from the Sun. Most other living beings (including us humans) get their energy from plants. Energy is stored as chemical energy, which we use. Plants use chemical energy, too, as energy storage.Plants and some algae get their energy from the Sun. Most other living beings (including us humans) get their energy from plants.

What type of energy do plants capture?
Most plants can use sunlight and carbon dioxide to make simple sugars. water + carbon dioxide together with chlorophyl and light make sugar and oxygen 6H2O + 6CO2 together with chlorophyl and light make C6H12O6 + 6O2
What type of energy is transformed into chemical energy plants?
during photosynthisis SOLAR energy is the type of energy which plants turn into chemical energy
What is the type of energy transformed into chemical energy by plants?
during photosynthisis SOLAR energy is the type of energy which plants turn into chemical energy
Type of energy plants transform into chemical energy?
light
Green plants perform which type of energy conversion?
solar to chemical energy
What type of organism stores energy by using the suns energy?
Plants - mainly
Type of energy transformed into chemical energy by plants?
Solar energy is transformed into chemical energy by plants through the process of photosynthesis. This energy is stored in the form of glucose and other carbohydrates, which can be used by the plant for growth and energy.
What is a plants cells source of energy?
Overall equation for the type of photosynthesis that occurs in plants.
Which type of organism produces energy from sunlight?
Autotrophs gather energy directly from the sun. Herbivores eat plants.
Which type of energy would be found on the lowest level of an energy pyramid?
producers/plants
Plants change light energy in what type of energy?
Chemical energy (the food they store, in form of sugar).
What type of energy transformed into chemical energy by plants?
Energy from the sun in EM radiation (visible light)
What type of energy plants are expensive to built?
tis type of energy plant is expensive to built is. is it solar , nuclear or both
