Question

2. How do plants obtain energy for photosynthesis?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Plants use a process called photosynthesis to make food. During photosynthesis, plants trap light energy with their leaves. Plants use the energy of the sun to change water and carbon dioxide into a sugar called glucose. Glucose is used by plants for energy and to make other substances like cellulose and starch.

Answer 2

Plants generate their own energy, whereas animals rely on plants for their energy and are unable to generate it on their own.

Explanation:

• Plants are primarily producers, which means they can turn solar energy into chemical energy.
• Photosynthesis is the name given to the complete process of energy conversion.
• Green plants employ basic materials in the presence of sunlight during photosynthesis, and the products produced are primarily glucose and water. This glucose subsequently proceeds via cellular respiration, resulting in the creation of pyruvate and ATP. For plants, ATP serves as a source of energy.
