    Question

    Name the physico-chemical process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy.

    A.

    Physico-chemical conversions

    B.

    Physical synthesis

    C.

    Photosynthesis

    D.

    Starch synthesis

    Correct option is C

    The correct answer is (c) Photosynthesis

    Explanation: Photosynthesis is a physicochemical process that allows plants to convert light energy into chemical energy

    Information Booster: Photosynthesis is a biological process that uses light energy from the sun to create chemical energy that fuels the metabolism of photosynthetic organisms, such as plants, algae, and cyanobacteria.

    • Process- During photosynthesis, chlorophyll in the chloroplasts of plant cells absorbs light energy and converts it into chemical energy. This process also uses water and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and organic compounds that store chemical energy.
    • Importance- Photosynthesis is essential for life on Earth because it produces oxygen and provides the energy that living things need to survive.
    • Related processes- Some bacteria also perform photosynthesis, but they use bacteriochlorophyll to split hydrogen sulfide instead of water, producing sulfur instead of oxygen.
