What energy do plants use to produce their food?

Plants use sunlight to produce their food through the process of photosynthesis. Light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll in plant cells, which is then converted into chemical energy in the form of glucose.


What do plants and Algae both use to grow?

Plants and algae both use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to undergo photosynthesis, a process that allows them to produce energy in the form of glucose. This energy is used for growth and metabolic processes in both plants and algae.


During photosynthesis is energy stored in the form of fat?

No, during photosynthesis, energy from sunlight is converted into chemical energy in the form of glucose, not fat. Plants then use this glucose as a source of energy for growth and metabolism. Fat is typically stored in plants as a reserve energy source.


Do plants use photosynthesis instead of respiration?

Plants use both photosynthesis and respiration. During photosynthesis, plants use sunlight to create energy (in the form of glucose) from carbon dioxide and water. Respiration, on the other hand, is the process where plants break down glucose to release energy for growth, repair, and other metabolic activities.


Through what process do plants store solar energy?

Plants store solar energy through the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants use energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (sugar), which is then used as a form of energy storage. This stored energy is used by the plant for growth, reproduction, and other metabolic functions.

What is compound produced by photosynthesis?

photosynthesis is how plants breath.


Do cotton plants use photosynthesis?

Yes, cotton plants do use photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy, and cotton plants are no exception. They use this energy to produce the nutrients they need to grow and develop.


Light energy is converted into chemical energy through the process of?

photosynthesis in plants. During photosynthesis, plants use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, a form of chemical energy. This process also releases oxygen as a byproduct.


In photosynthesis do plants absorb energy from the sun?

Plants don't really absorb energy, but they do use the energy of the sun's light to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose, which is a form of chemical energy. So yes, the sun's energy does enable plants to grow, but it isn't just absorbed in the same form.


Where does the energy come from plants use to carry out photosynthesis?

Plants use sunlight as the primary source of energy to carry out photosynthesis. The sunlight is absorbed by pigments in the chloroplasts of plant cells, where the light energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of glucose.


What process in which plants use energy from the Sun to produce food in the form of glucose is called?

Photosynthesis

What do plants use the energy to do?

Plants harness the energy from our sun to create chlorophyll from the process of photosynthesis. Plants use the energy of sunlight to synthesize the hexose sugars by photosynthesis in their chloroplasts.


Why do plants undergo photosynthesis?

Plants undergo photosynthesis to convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into energy in the form of glucose, which they use for growth, reproduction, and overall survival.
