chlorophyll
Energy is captured for photosynthesis by pigments called chlorophyll, which are located in the chloroplasts of plant cells. These pigments absorb sunlight and convert it into chemical energy that is used to drive the process of photosynthesis.
These links are called food chains. The herbivors eat plants to get energy taped by plants during photosynthesis. The herbivors are eaten by carnivors to recycle that very energy of photosynthesis. Thus there is a link among producers (plants) and consumers (animals).

it is about the sun. It is capturing sun light.

chlorophyll
it is not the sun that is captured, but the sun's energy. it is the heat and the light that "feeds" the plant. :)

chemical bonds of sugar molecules
The radiant energy of sun is captured in the form of chemical energy by synthesizing organic compounds through photosynthesis.
