Light doesn't become energy, energy becomes light. When electrons in atoms absorb energy from electricity in our light bulbs or nuclear fusion in the sun, or even during some chemical reactions, like fire, they jump to higher energy levels. Thing is though, they don't stay there. WHen they jump back to their original energy level, they will release a photon of electromagnetic radiation. (sometimes light) Now, that light can be converted into different forms of energy. Mostly heat like when the Earth absorbes light from the Sun and stores it in the oceans as heat. Also it can be converted into electricity when photons of light bump electrons in photovoltaic material out of their orbitals and make them flow through a wire. That is what electricity is, a flow of electrons in a wire. If your question is really how does light become electricity, Google photovoltaic cells and that will explain it more clearly. By the way, the effect you read about is what Albert Einstein won a Nobel Prize for and it has helped defined the dual nature of light ever since. There is one other way light becomes energy. Plabts store the energy from the Sun in molecules of starches and sugars made of water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) using sunlight to reaarange the atoms in a chemical reaction. These starches and sugars can then be eaten by other organisms, mainly animals, to give them the energy they need to live. GOOGLE Photosynthesis and Respiration to see how this all works. REMEMBER THIS!!!!! Law of conservation of energy tells us that energy cannot be created or destroyed. All the energy in the universe has always been here and will always be here as long as the universe exists. Thing about energy is that it can be converted into different forms, like light into heat, but it can't be created or destroyed; only converted.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the gas converted by plants using light energy through the process of photosynthesis.
The main form of energy taken by the leaf during photosynthesis is light energy from the sun. This energy is captured by pigments in the chloroplasts of the leaf, such as chlorophyll, and converted into chemical energy in the form of glucose.
False. Light energy is converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis, not the citric acid cycle. The citric acid cycle, also known as the Krebs cycle, is a series of chemical reactions that occur in the mitochondria and are involved in the production of ATP from the oxidation of acetyl-CoA.
According to the second law of thermodynamics, some of the light energy absorbed during photosynthesis is lost as heat energy due to inefficiencies in the conversion process. This means that not all the light energy is converted into chemical energy in the bonds of glucose molecules produced during photosynthesis.
The light-independent stage of photosynthesis, also known as the Calvin cycle, occurs in the stroma of the chloroplasts. Here, carbon dioxide is fixed and converted into sugars using the ATP and NADPH generated during the light-dependent stage.
During the process of photosynthesis, light energy is converted to chemical energy.
Sunlight+Glucose+Water in the mesophyll= PHOTOSYNTHESIS.
Light energy
During photosynthesis light energy is converted to chemical energy. Then it is stored into a form of bond sugar.
During photosynthesis, radiant energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of glucose. This process occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells in the presence of sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide.
Light energy is the type of energy that is converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis. This process occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells, where light energy is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
light energy is converted to chemical energy i.e. sunlight is converted to starch during photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis
Carbon dioxide is one compound converted during photosynthesis that consists of two words.
The process by which light energy is converted to chemical energy in plants is called photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce glucose (sugar) and oxygen. This process takes place in the chloroplasts of plant cells, where chlorophyll captures the light energy and converts it into chemical energy.
Chloroplast traps light energy and converts to chemical energy
