Question

1. during photosynthesis, energy from the sun is trapped as...

a. water and carbon dioxide.
b. chemical energy in the glucose molecule.
c. cell respiration.
d. oxygen.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to produce glucose and oxygen. The energy from the sun is converted into chemical energy stored in the glucose molecule. Water and carbon dioxide are reactants (not where energy is trapped), cell respiration is a different process (uses glucose to release energy), and oxygen is a product (not where energy is trapped).

Answer:

B. chemical energy in the glucose molecule.
