Question
photosynthesis is an example of light (radiant) energy transformed ______ energy.
options:
○ chemical
○ electrical
○ nuclear
○ mechanical
Brief Explanations
In photosynthesis, plants use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (sugar) and oxygen. Glucose stores chemical energy. So light (radiant) energy is transformed into chemical energy. Electrical energy involves charge flow, nuclear energy involves atomic nuclei, and mechanical energy involves motion/force, which don't fit photosynthesis.
